Is it posible to redirect a sub-subdomain into a subdomain with the sub-sub domain as new folder using .htaccess rewrite-rule?
For example... When i go to 2013.archive.example.com I want to end up in archive.example.com/2013..
Already tried some things, current .htaccess is:
RewriteRule On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(.*)\.archive\.example\.com$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ archive.example.com/%1/$1 [L]
Unfortunately it isn't working. Any suggestions for this?
Changed it a but, currently using:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(.*)\.archive\.example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ %1/$1 [L]
and is working exactly how I wanted:)
For external redirect: (URL change in browser)
You can use this rule in your DOCUMENT_ROOT/.htaccess:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^([^.]+)\.(archive\.example\.com)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ http://%2/%1%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
This will work provided DOCUMENT_ROOT is same for anything.archive.example.com and archive.example.com.
For internal forward: (No URL change in browser)
You can use this rule in your DOCUMENT_ROOT/.htaccess:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^([^.]+)\.archive\.example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%1%{REQUEST_URI} [L]
If they share the same root, then you don't need the archive.example.com part in your rule's target:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(.*)\.archive\.example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /%1/$1 [L]
I'm trying to remove the www. for a single directory called dir (for example). I need to be able to do this from the .htaccess file in that directory. (I don't have root access.) Any idea how to make this work?
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.example\.com/dir$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://example.com/dir$1 [R=301,L]
Update—the solution:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.+)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://%1/dir/$1 [R=301,L]
The HTTP_HOST will not contain the path being accessed you need to match that in the rewrite rule itself:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.example\.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^dir\/(.*)$ http://example.com/dir/$1 [R=301,L]
I'm trying to write a RewriteRule for my .htaccess file. Specifically, whenever a user accesses a specific subdirectory, I would like it to Rewrite to force an HTTPS connection.
For example, whenever someone accesses: http://www.mydomain.com/subdirectory (and any other sub-directories of that "subdirectory").
I'd like it to rewrite to https://www.mydomain.com/subdirectory
I've tried the following, but it appears to create a loop:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.mydomain.com/subdirectory/$1 [R=301,L]
Also, this .htaccess file is placed in the root of my domain.
Any ideas on how to modify my RewriteRule?
Many Thanks!
I would put this into the domain's root directory:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^(subdirectory/.*)$ https://www.mydomain.com/$1 [R=301,L]
This work for me, this allow you to redirect to https a specific folder, just add an htaccess file inside of the folder with the following content:
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule .* https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
Ahh, its a combo of the two. MonoMano - you've omitted the subdirectory in the first part of the RewriteRule, therefore directing ALL traffic to the HTTPS subdomain address. I found that checking for 'off' was more reliable than checking for !=on, dont ask me why!
You'd want to add the subdirectory back in as per Floern's response, see below:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^(subdirectory/.*)$ https://www.mydomain.com/subdirectory/$1 [R=301,L]
Add the lines given below to .htaccess file of that subdirectory:
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.domain.com/subdirectory/$1 [L,R=301]
Use this if you don't want the address bar to show the subfolder. It will redirect yourdomain.com to yourdomain.com/subfolder but will look like you are still on yourdomain.com
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?yourprimarydomain.com$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/subfolder/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /subfolder/$1
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?yourmaindomain.com$
RewriteRule ^(/)?$ subfolder/index.php [L]
Try This
RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Proto} !https
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^.*$ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [R,L]
This will remove www prefix , and force https:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [OR,NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^ https://example.com%{REQUEST_URI} [NE,R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^((?!subdirectory/).*)$ /subdirectory/$1 [L]
Change example.com for you main domain and subdirectory for Sub Directory
Try
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.mydomain.com/subdirectory/$1 [R=301,L]
Trying to get
www.example.com
to go directly to
www.example.com/store
I have tried multiple bits of code and none work.
What I've tried:
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example.com$
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.example.com/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(.+)\www.example\.com$
RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ /samle/%1/$1 [L]
What am I doing wrong?
You can use a rewrite rule that uses ^$ to represent the root and rewrite that to your /store directory, like this:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^$ /store [L]
I was surprised that nobody mentioned this:
RedirectMatch ^/$ /store/
Basically, it redirects the root and only the root URL.
The answer originated from this link
Try this:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example\.com$
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.example.com/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^$ store [L]
If you want an external redirect (which cause the visiting browser to show the redirected URL), set the R flag there as well:
RewriteRule ^$ /store [L,R=301]
Here is what I used to redirect to a subdirectory. This did it invisibly and still allows through requests that match an existing file or whatever.
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?site.com$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/subdir/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /subdir/$1
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?site.com$
RewriteRule ^(/)?$ subdir/index.php [L]
Change out site.com and subdir with your values.
To set an invisible redirect from root to subfolder, You can use the following RewriteRule in /root/.htaccess :
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/subfolder
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /subfolder/$1 [NC,L]
The rule above will internally redirect the browser from :
http://example.com/
to
http://example.com/subfolder
And
http://example.com/foo
to
http://example.com/subfolder/foo
while the browser will stay on the root folder.
Another alternative if you want to rewrite the URL and hide the original URL:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /store/$1 [L]
With this, if you for example type http://www.example.com/product.php?id=4, it will transparently open the file at http://www.example.com/store/product.php?id=4 but without showing to the user the full url.
This seemed the simplest solution:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/$
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.example.com/store [R=301,L]
I was getting redirect loops with some of the other solutions.
Most of the above solutions are correct but they are all missing the transparency of the redirection.
In my case, when visiting www.example.com I wanted to get redirected to the subdirectory /store but without updating the URL to www.example.com/store. (all I want is to get the page code form that directory). If that is your case the solution below works perfectly.
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} example\.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /store/$1 [L]

I don't understand your question...
If you want to redirect every request to a subfolder:
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ shop/$1 [L,QSA]
http://www.example.com/* -> wwwroot/store/*
If you want to redirect to a subfolder which has the domain name
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ([^\.]+\.[^\.]+)$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ %1/$1 [L,QSA]
http://www.example.com/* -> wwwroot/example.com/*
I have found that in order to avoid circular redirection, it is important to limit the scope of redirection to root directory.
I would have used:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/$
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.example.com/store [R=301,L]
Formerly I use the following code which is work correctly to redirect root URL of each of my domains/subdomains to their correspondence subdirectories which are named exactly as the sub/domain it self as below:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^sub1.domain1.com
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !subs/sub1.domain1.com/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ subs/%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [L,QSA]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^sub2.domain1.com
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !subs/sub1.domain2.com/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ subs/%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [L,QSA]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^sub1.domain2.com
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !subs/sub1.domain2.com/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ subs/%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [L,QSA]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^sub2.domain2.com
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !subs/sub2.domain2.com/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ subs/%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [L,QSA]
However when I want to add another subs or domains then it will need to be added in the above code. It should be much more convenient to simplify it to work like wildcard (*) as below:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^sub
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/subs/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ subs/%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [L,QSA]
So whenever another subdomains/domains is added as long as the subdomain name has a prefix of sub (like: sub3.domain1.com, sub1.domain3.com etc.) the code will remain valid.
Two ways out of possible solutions to achieve this are:
1. Create a .htaccess file in root folder as under (just replace example.com and my_dir with your corresponding values):
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?example.com$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/my_dir/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /my_dir/$1
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?example.com$
RewriteRule ^(/)?$ my_dir/index.php [L]
</IfModule>
Use RedirectMatch to only redirect the root URL “/” to another folder or URL,
RedirectMatch ^/$ http://www.example.com/my_dir
I think the main problems with the code you posted are:
the first line matches on a host beginning with strictly sample.com, so www.sample.com doesn't match.
the second line wants at least one character, followed by www.sample.com which also doesn't match (why did you escape the first w?)
none of the included rules redirect to the url you specified in your goal (plus, sample is misspelled as samle, but that's irrelevant).
For reference, here's the code you currently have:
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^sample.com$
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.sample.com/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(.+)\www.sample\.com$
RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ /samle/%1/$1 [L]
One can use Redirect too for this purpose
Redirect 301 / www.example.com/store
Or Alias for mapping
Alias / /store
Edit: mod_alias is only applicable in httpd.conf.
Refrences
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_alias.html
https://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/rewrite/avoid.html
A little googling, gives me these results:
RewriteEngine On RewriteBase
/ RewriteRule ^index.(.*)?$
http://domain.com/subfolder/
[r=301]
This will redirect any attempt to
access a file named index.something to
your subfolder, whether the file
exists or not.
Or try this:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}
!^www.sample.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$
%{HTTP_HOST}/samlse/$1 [R=301,L]
I haven't done much redirect in the .htaccess file, so I'm not sure if this will work.
try to use below lines in htaccess
Note: you may need to check what is the name of the default.html
default.html is the file that load by default in the root folder.
RewriteEngine
Redirect /default.html http://example.com/store/
you just add this code into your .htaccess file
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /folder/index.php [L]
</IfModule>
This will try the subdir if the file doesn't exist in the root. Needed this as I moved a basic .html website that expects to be ran at the root level and pushed it to a subdir. Only works if all files are flat (no .htaccess trickery in the subdir possible). Useful for linked things like css and js files.
# Internal Redirect to subdir if file is found there.
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/%{REQUEST_URI} !-s
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/subdir/%{REQUEST_URI} -s
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /subdir/$1 [L]
I'll answer the original question not by pointing out another possible syntax (there are many amongst the other answers) but by pointing out something I have once had to deal with, that took me a while to figure out:
What am I doing wrong?
There is a possibility that %{HTTP_HOST} is not being populated properly, or at all. Although, I've only seen that occur in only one machine on a shared host, with some custom patched apache 2.2, it's a possibility nonetheless.
