multiple rules of URL rewriting - .htaccess

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.html[L,QSA]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)$ /profile.php?name=$1
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)/$ /profile.php?name=$1
This is currently .htaccess of my website. The rewriting supposes to have two functions, makes the internal url example/profile.php/name=xyz into example/xyz as external url, and also removes the extensions of html files.
But the extension removing is not working, and such as for a file named xyz.html, it gets 404 and
example.com/xyz/?name=xyz
At the address bar. I think there is some conflicts between two rules.


RewriteCond is only applicable to very next RewriteRule hence your last rule is running without any RewriteCond. Also you need to use [L] (Last) flag in all of your rules.
Use this code:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /$1.html [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /$1.php [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([\w-]+)/?$ /profile.php?name=$1 [L]

How can I have 2 rewrite rules on my .htaccess file

I currently have an .htaccess file that has one rewrite rule that removes .html however I cannot seem to be able to do the same thing with .php without messing up my whole website
This is the code that I have in my .htaccess file.
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.html [NC,L]
Thanks

Sure you can, why not?
Your version:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.html [NC,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php [NC,L]
Some lightly modified version:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.html -f
RewriteRule ^ %{REQUEST_URI}.html [END]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f
RewriteRule ^ %{REQUEST_URI}.php [END]
You generally should switch off MultiViews when implementing such rules by the way.

After url rewrite, the system adds the extension

With the following rules in my .htaccess, the system adds a .php at the end of my url's.
RewriteEngine On
# Removing extension
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.php [NC,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^app/([^/]+)$ app.php?module=$1 [L]
Why ?
Thanks.

Have your first rule add .php only after checking if .php file exists:
RewriteEngine On
# add extension
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule ^([^.]+?)/?$ $1.php [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^app/([^/]+)$ app.php?module=$1 [L,QSA,NC]

drop .php extension for folders - htaccess

Currently I drop the .php extension in the URL.
I use:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/$ $1.php
# Forces a trailing slash to be added
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(\.[a-zA-Z0-9]{1,5}|/)$
RewriteRule (.*)$ /$1/ [R=301,L]
The problem is that if I have a folder it doesn't work. I have to add it to every folder group. I know there is an easier way.
Can anyone help?

You just need to change the regex so that you aren't excluding requests that have a / in it.
Change your first rule to:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.+)/$ $1.php

.htaccess - Clean URL, 500 Internal Server Error

I've got this as my .htaccess:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.html
# Where it's all about
RewriteRule ^users/([a-zA-Z0-9]+)$ users.php?user=$1
RewriteRule ^users/([a-zA-Z0-9]+)/$ users.php?user=$1
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.daltonempire.nl [nocase]
RewriteRule ^(.*)
http://daltonempire.nl/$1 [last,redirect=301]
I tried to make clean urls, redirecting daltonempire.nl/users/Me to daltonempire.nl/users.php?user=Me.
However, I failed miserably. My website now constantly returns a 500 Internal Server Error.
(I possibly somehow created a redirection loop?)
What did I do wrong? (And what do I have to do to fix it?)

Believe you have an extra newline in last rule. Also make sure to use L (Last) flag in all of your rules.
RewriteEngine on
# Where it's all about
RewriteRule ^users/([a-zA-Z0-9]+)/?$ users.php?user=$1 [L,QSA]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.+?)/?$ $1.php [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.+?)/?$ $1.html [L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(daltonempire\.nl)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ http://%1%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301,NE]

htaccess remove html and php duplicated is not working

this snippet works fine for removing php extension
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php
However, if I add html condition, it will not work
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.html
Did I do something wrong?

You may try this instead, in one .htaccess file at root directory:
Options +FollowSymlinks -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.php [NC]
RewriteRule .* %{REQUEST_URI}.php [NC,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.html -f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.html [NC]
RewriteRule .* %{REQUEST_URI}.html [NC,L]
You should be aware the implementation in your code works only when the request doesn't have a trailing slash. I just modified your code to work, but I think it's worth nothing that problem. For example:
For a request like http://example.com/filename/, the file to match with condition RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f is filename/.php. That file can't exist, therefore, the respective rule will be never used.
Option to remove the trailing slash when present:
Add these lines after RewriteEngine On in the previous code:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} /(.*[^/]+)/$ [NC]
RewriteRule .* /%1 [NC,L]
