Is there a more efficient way to doing this?
The last /(.*)$ is an ID that I don't care to use. only whats before it.
RewriteRule ^about-us/news-room/(.*)_(.*)_(.*)_(.*)_(.*)_(.*)_(.*)_(.*)_(.*)_(.*)/(.*)$ index.php?go=/news/press-releases/$1-$2-$3-$4-$5-$6-$7-$8-$9-$10 [NC]
RewriteRule ^about-us/news-room/(.*)_(.*)_(.*)_(.*)_(.*)_(.*)_(.*)_(.*)_(.*)/(.*)$ index.php?go=/news/press-releases/$1-$2-$3-$4-$5-$6-$7-$8-$9 [NC]
RewriteRule ^about-us/news-room/(.*)_(.*)_(.*)_(.*)_(.*)_(.*)_(.*)_(.*)/(.*)$ index.php?go=/news/press-releases/$1-$2-$3-$4-$5-$6-$7-$8 [NC]
RewriteRule ^about-us/news-room/(.*)_(.*)_(.*)_(.*)_(.*)_(.*)_(.*)/(.*)$ index.php?go=/news/press-releases/$1-$2-$3-$4-$5-$6-$7 [NC]
RewriteRule ^about-us/news-room/(.*)_(.*)_(.*)_(.*)_(.*)_(.*)/(.*)$ index.php?go=/news/press-releases/$1-$2-$3-$4-$5-$6 [NC]
RewriteRule ^about-us/news-room/(.*)_(.*)_(.*)_(.*)_(.*)/(.*)$ index.php?go=/news/press-releases/$1-$2-$3-$4-$5 [NC]
RewriteRule ^about-us/news-room/(.*)_(.*)_(.*)_(.*)/(.*)$ index.php?go=/news/press-releases/$1-$2-$3-$4 [NC]
RewriteRule ^about-us/news-room/(.*)_(.*)_(.*)/(.*)$ index.php?go=/news/press-releases/$1-$2-$3 [NC]
RewriteRule ^about-us/news-room/(.*)_(.*)/(.*)$ index.php?go=/news/press-releases/$1-$2 [NC]
I found some solutions online but seem to get really confused on using the [N] flag? Not too sure here. Can anyone explain a better more efficient way to do this?
You can just let the rewrite engine loop internally for this:
RewriteRule ^about-us/news-room/(.+)/(.*)$ index.php?go=/news/press-releases/$1 [L,NC]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^go=/news/press-releases/(.*)_(.*)$
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ /index.php?go=/news/press-releases/%1-%2 [L]
The first rule sends the request to index.php, and the second rule removes the underscores and replaces them with dashes. Because the rewrite engine loops, it'll keep applying the rule until either the recursion limit is reached or all the underscores are gone.

#anubhava provided an excellent answer for my previous question of doing an .htaccess internal rewrite with the below code, which worked for my one search query.
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} id=([0-9]+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^file\.php$ /directory/%1? [R=301,L,NC]
RewriteRule ^directory/(\d+)/?$ /directory/file.php?id=$1 [L,QSA,NC]
I wanted to make this a separate question since my next question is slightly different. How could I adapt this to also work with two parameters? For instance, I would also like http://ipaddress/directory/file.php?id=47?name=value1 to redirect to http://ipaddress/directory/47/value1
name= can also be any combination of letters and numbers, like value1050, etc.
Thank you #anubhava for your previous answer above, and maybe there's a way to add on this second parameter as well?
Considering you are segregating your query string values in id=1234&name=value123 style, since passing 2 times query string will not be allowed, then you could try following, fix of your shown attempt.
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^id=(\d+)&name=(.*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^file\.php/?$ /directory/%1/%2? [R=301,L,NC]
RewriteRule ^directory/(\d+)/(.*)/?$ /directory/file.php?id=$1&name=$2 [L,QSA,NC]
2nd solution: Adding 1 more solution here, either use above OR use following one at a time only please.
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/file\.php\?d=(\d+)&name=(\S+)\s [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /directory/%1/%2? [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^directory/(\d+)/(.*)/?$ /directory/file.php?id=$1&name=$2 [NC,L,QSA]
i have a issue with some rewriting url with htaccess.
i need the following:
old: mydomain.com/categorie/details.php?companyid=10
new: mydomain.com/item/?p=10
where i want to catch and replace the numbers (of several id) dynamically.
I've read the answer of the other question but that's only replace the query string. I quess i need some regex but i'm a newbee with that..
i have this in htaccess:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/categorie/details\.php$
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^companyID=([0-9]*)$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ www.mydomain.com/item/?p=%1/ [R=301,L]
Before i migrate i've tested this and it worked fine, for some reasons it won't work anymore after migration.
Do i miss something? Is this the wrong approach?
Kind regards,
Tom.
At this line
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ www.mydomain.com/item/?p=%1/ [R=301,L]
Put the ful URL like this :
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.example.com/item/?p=%1/ [R=301,L]
Also put this [NC] ,nocase to accept upper-case and lower-case, at the end of this line
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^companyID=([0-9]*)$ [NC].
So , your rules should look like this :
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/categorie/details\.php$
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^companyID=([0-9]*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.example.com/item/?p=%1 [R=301,L]
To sumerize all these rules more , do this :
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^companyID=([0-9]*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^categorie/details\.php$ http://www.example.com/item/?p=%1 [R=301,L]
And as you menthioned that it is same domain , let them be like this :
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^companyID=([0-9]*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^categorie/details\.php$ /item/?p=%1 [R=301,L]
No need to full URL.
Note: clear browser cache then test
Mine actual code is this and the last rule dsnt work properly, someone can help please?,
A lot of thanks!
RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^diamantesgould.net [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.diamantesgould.net/$1 [R=301]
RewriteRule ^([a-z0-9_-]+)$ /index.php?po=$1 [NC]
RewriteRule ^categories/([a-z0-9_-]+)$ /index.php?ca=$1 [NC]
RewriteRule ^videos/([a-z0-9_-]+)$ /video.php?movie=$1 [NC]
RewriteRule ^galleries/([a-z0-9_-]+)$ /galleries.php?gallery=$1 [NC]
NOTE: The problem is that it shows the same page by typing mydomain.com/galleries or mydomain.com/galleries/1 or mydomain.com/galleries/1/2/3/4 ... It always shows the galleries page (mydomain.com/galleries)
I see something that may not be rigth in your regexp:
[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+ should be [a-zA-Z0-9_\-]+, - is a special char so must be escaped to be used only as a char
I got the following url:
127.0.0.1/abc_123456/default/index/index/
Which should be rewritten to:
127.0.0.1/123456/index.php/default/index/index/
So remove abc_ and add index.php after it. Problem is that the digits are variable, but the abc_ isn't.
I had the following rule:
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]+\ /abc_
RewriteRule ^abc_(.*)/(.*)$ /$1/index.php/$2
But that resulted in the url being rewritten to:
127.0.0.1/123456/default/index/index.php/index/
Seems like I'm almost there, but I can't figure it out.
Thanks in advance
Use this simple rule:
RewriteRule ^abc_([0-9]+)/(.*)$ $1/index.php/$2 [L,NC]
Try
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]+\ /abc_([0-9]+)/([^\ \?]+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%1/index.php/%2 [L]
EDIT
However, you are right about the other rule, that's the one giving the error; RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} !^[A-Z]+\ /abc_ RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 That one is used to rewrite if the page does not contain the /abc_123456/
Add an extra condition to that rule as below
#if not abc_
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} !^[A-Z]+\ /abc_ [NC]
#if not already index.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/index\.php$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]
for example, if you need similar solution, when visited this url:
http://yoursite.com/subpage1/subpage2/?YOURSTRING=blabla
to redirected visitor to
http://yoursite.com/subpage1/subpage2/
then see link - http://stackoverflow.com/a/15680832/2215124
I want users who type
http://www.example.com/word-of-the-day
to be taken to
http://www.example.com/index.php?page=word-of-the-day
But I want
http://www.example.com/word-of-the-day
to be shown in the URL for the user.
What should I do in my .htaccess? I tried but the regular expression
and the syntax of RewriteRule is way too complicated for me to
figure out how to do it.
Any help will be appreciated.
Edit:
Also, how can I say this in htaccess -
if they type http://www.example.com/word-of-the-day, take them to http://www.example.com/index.php?page=word-of-the-day
or if they type http://www.example.com/something-else, take them to http://www.example.com/index.php?page=something-else
or else, just take them to the URL they typed.
The condition below checks that index.php is not being requested. If not apply the rule. This will work for any of the scenarios you listed above.
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^!.*[index\.php].*$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?page=$1 [L]
In response to your comment about only wanting to do this for a few specific pages, it would look like this(as an alternative to Nils edit):
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^!.*[index\.php].*$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^word-of-the-day$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^something-else$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^even-something-else$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?page=$1 [L]
Try this
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^word-of-the-day$ index.php?page=word-of-the-day
Or more flexible
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?page=$1
Not tested, yet it sould work.
To your edit:
Just define those specific URLs manually:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^word-of-the-day$ index.php?page=word-of-the-day
RewriteRule ^word-some-example$ index.php?page=some-example
RewriteRule ^some-other$ index.php?page=some-other
