I'm currently hosting a site on a service that has mod_rewrite on by default. I edited the .htaccess with
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.html
but it only allow the site to be accessed with "site.com/pagename." I want it to rewrite the url to say "site.com/pagename" rather than "site.com/pagename.html."
I've tried a million different flavors of this code and it won't rewrite the url to exclude .html. The HTML code has the pages linking to each other as
Text
If that makes a difference.
Thanks in advance for any help.
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /([^.]+\.)+html?\ HTTP
RewriteRule (.+)\.html?$ $1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.html

I'm in the process of rebuilding a site and want to set it up as follows:
1 ) Pages other than index.html e.g. www.website.co.uk/support/web-design.html becomes www.website.co.uk/support/web-design/
2) Pages that aren't in subfolders e.g. www.website.co.uk/contact.html becomes www.website.co.uk/contact/
I know I should use a .htaccess file. I've looked various sites explaining htaccess and mod_rewrite but need help. Can anyone explain how this should this be setup to achieve the above?
Thanks
Try:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \ /+([^\?]+)\.html
RewriteCond %1 !^index$
RewriteRule ^ /%1/ [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/$1.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.+?)/?$ /$1.html [L]
These rules would go in the htaccess file in your document root
You can use this code in your DOCUMENT_ROOT/.htaccess file:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^index\.html$ - [L,NC]
# To internally forward /dir/file to /dir/file.html
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/$1\.html -f [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.+?)/?$ /$1.html [L]
I am working on a twitter/facebook type site for a college class. Somehow they let a professor teach this class with no PHP, CSS, HTML, JavaScript,jQuery, or Ajax knowledge. I have been trying to rewrite my URLs to make them look like twitter. I have gotten all of my user profile pages to rewrite to: www.site.com/username from: www.site.com/profile.php?name=username. However, I also want to rewrite my login page, create account page, etc. Currently they are: www.site.com/login.html , www.site.com/createAccount.html. I want the to rewrite without the html. Here is my .htaccess file currently.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.html -f
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.html [NC,L]
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)$ profile.php?name=$1 [L]
**Update
I apologize I ended up switching all of my files over to .php. But I am still having some issues. Now, I only want to redirect specific URLs. For example: www.361orc.info/login should internally redirect to www.361.orc.info/login.php . I cannot seem to figure out what is wrong with the following code. It redirects but it does it changes the client URL. I want it to just redirect internally. Here is my .htaccess file:
RewriteEngine On
#I want this code to change .com/login.php to .com/login but only internally
#the URL in the client's browser shouldn't change
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-
RewriteRule ^login?$ login.php [L]
#Change the profile pages of users from .com/profile.php?name=user to .com/user
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([\w-]+)/?$ /profile.php?name=$1 [L,QSA]
you could do something like this
# Rewrite User Profiles
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^name=([^&]+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^profile.php$ /%1 [R=301,L]
# Rewrite Login
RewriteRule ^login.html$ /login [R=301,L]
# Rewrite Create Account
RewriteRule ^createAccount.html$ /createAccount [R=301,L]
You are pretty close, just an external redirection rule that will redirect .html files to ones without .html extension:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
# To externally redirect /dir/file.html to /dir/file
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\s/+(.+?)\.html[\s?] [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1 [R=301,L,NE]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.html -f
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+?)/?$ $1.html [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([\w-]+)$ profile.php?name=$1 [L,QSA]
First of all, I know there are plenty of similar questions about this around, but
None of them seem to work for me
None of them actually address exactly what I want
What I want is, as the title suggests, to redirect URLs without the .php extension to the actual .php file - changing the URL if possible (which I presume is just handled by [R=301]). The latest thing I tried was this:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ $1.php [R=301]
That doesn't work. I can still cant access /about.php with /about. (.htaccess rules themselves are working fine though)
I understand RegEx fine, but htaccess rules just mess with my head =[
So what should I do?
Now I know what you're thinking
One of you will say this: "Why do you want to do this? Just get rid of extensions completely and access your pages via /about or /about/ with a trailing slash."
I'd like to do that, it looks quite good. Problem is SEO - from which I assume my page ranks will get annihilated because all of a sudden they're on different URLs. So before you suggest that, suggest how I'd keep my page ranks first.
What I'm actually doing is essentially URL shortening for a poster - it's a lot easier for people to remember mywebsite.com/about than mywebsite.com/about.php.
Enable mod_rewrite and .htaccess through httpd.conf and then put this code in your .htaccess under DOCUMENT_ROOT directory:
Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
# Turn mod_rewrite on
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
## hide .php extension
# To externally redirect /dir/foo.php to /dir/foo
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\s([^.]+)\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1 [R=302,L]
# To internally forward /dir/foo/ to /dir/foo.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/$1.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*?)/?$ $1.php [L]
Please Make sure you have MultiViews options disabled using: Options -MultiViews
Beware of Apaches multiviews
Once you verify it is working fine, replace R=302 to R=301. Avoid using R=301 (Permanent Redirect) while testing your mod_rewrite rules.
Please make sure that there's mod_rewrite on your Apache HTTP Server and try this:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)$ /$1.php [R]
But clear your cache or use another browser first before checking the redirecting dynamic URLs, because you've been previously used the [R=301] flag! For more info. about that, please visit: https://stackoverflow.com/a/15999177/2007055
Could you try this one but it's quite the same as the previous code:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1.php
And when it works, try adding these two conditions above the rewrite rule:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1.php
And when any of these codes above does not work, I think there's a problem in your Apache HTTP Server.
That works for me.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ $1.php [L,QSA]
You can chain it if you want e.g.
RewriteEngine On
# Remove trailing slashes.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.+)/$ /$1 [R=permanent,QSA]
# Redirect to HTML
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ $1.html [L,QSA]
# Redirect to PHP
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ $1.php [L,QSA]
# Redirect to ASP
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.asp -f
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ $1.asp [L,QSA]
I've been asked to set up a redirect on a website.
Currently the website redirects allows you to visit http://www.site.co.uk/test instead of /test.html
The code being used is:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.html
I was wondering if anyone knows a way to keep this behaviour, but also redirect the .html extension to the non html version?
Try adding the following to your htaccess file in the root directory of your site.
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
#redirect .html version
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ (/[^\ ]+)\.html\ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1 [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.html [L]
I included the code for making the URLs work with and without .php. I included the below written code
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.php [NC,L]
Now the url works with and without .php. For e.g. if we put http://www.test.com/test.php or http://www.test.com/test both works. But the problem is folders doesn't load. For e.g. http://www.test.com/admin doesn't load. not found error is shown. Admin is a folder. Any idea?
Try this code for .php extension removal instead:
# To externally redirect /dir/foo.php to /dir/foo
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^GET\s.+\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.+)\.php$ /$1 [R=301,L,NC]
# To internally redirect /dir/foo to /dir/foo.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.php$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule . %{REQUEST_URI}.php [L]
Make sure to comment out your existing code
Try below :
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule !.*\.php$ %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php [NC,L]
this will also work with a directory path.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.php [NC,L]
just try this...I think its working
