I have a controller named (for example) TheLink, and I can normally access it through mywebsite/index.php/TheLink. Is it possible to make a RewriteRule in htaccess to access it via mywebsite/index.php/The-Link without it redirecting to TheLink? So basically what I want it the URL to say mywebsite/index.php/The-Link (with dash) but use the TheLink controller.
I've tried
RewriteRule ^The-Link$ index.php/TheLink
[L]
but that just redirects me to the default CodeIgniter 404 Page
# To remove index.php from URL
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^system.*
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]
Additionally if website is hosted in another directory not just root, add this:
RewriteBase /some_directory/
Well, apparently this problem has nothing to do with htaccess and is solved in a completely different way. Solution found here:
Codeigniter Routes regex - using dashes in controller/method names
Edit: Also, a number of different solutions for this, including the one above, found here:

The website I'm working on is using some cms. I need to add a static website to this. When I put mypage.html in the main directory and go to www.website.com/mypage.html it works. I would like the page to be accessible without '.html' ending. I experimented with editing htaccess files but always end up with error of too many redirections.
What I entered were various combinations, for example
Redirect 301 http://website.com/mypage http://website.com/mypage.html
The htaccess file I'm using looks like this:
:Location /*.php
Use php54
:Location
RewriteEngine On
DirectoryIndex index_prod.php
Options -Indexes
RewriteRule ^.*\.(css|png|swf|js|gif|jpeg|jpg|flv|pdf|doc)$ - [L]
RewriteRule ^net2ftp - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
#RewriteRule ^/?$ plug.html [L]
#RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !=/
RewriteRule ^/?.* index_prod.php
I'm looking for tips or to be explicitly told what and where to put in htaccess file to make it work (if it's possible)
Could you please try following, considering that you want without extension file URLs to be served by html extension files. Also since you didn't mention any specific condition before RewriteRule hence that redirection errors are coming to it, because its keep on redirecting in lack of any condition/check's presence(till its maximum redirection limit is crossed).
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /$1.html [NC,L]
I have been fiddle farting around with htaccess and RewriteEngine but I can't quite get my head around it...
I'm building a website on which I want users to be able to go to /portfolio/typography for example. But I don't want to create seperate pages for each category in this portfolio and thus I want to rewrite (redirect?) all the requests that go to /portfolio/ to the index.php of this directory and load the appropiate projects for this category from there.
Any ideas on how I could do this? I used this to redirect all the requests to /portfolio/:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/portfolio/$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.(jpe?g?|png|gif) [NC]
RewriteRule .* /portfolio/ [R=302,L]
Thanks in advance,

EDIT
Maybe I should note that I have another .htaccess file in the root of my website.
Ok, so I found the answer to my own question...
Seems like the following is working:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1?%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
i got a site php based with some rules in the .htaccess file to get rid of file extentions in the url adress bar. Basically it takes http://netbureau.com.br/en/about.php/ and turns it into http://netbureau.com.br/en/about.
Here are the lines in the htaccess file:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php
The problem comes when i try to access the rss feed of the blog at http://netbureau.com.br/blog/?feed=rss2 and when i try to set custom permalinks for the blog at http://netbureau.com.br/blog. It gets messed up by the htaccess file.
So is there any way to disallow the RewriteRule for the /blog folder so that i can get back my rss link and set custom permalinks in the blog?
I know it's at the same time Wordpress related but it feels more connected to the htaccess file than Wp.
Thanks in advance.
EDIT #1:
I've set up the wordpress permalinks to the default structure which goes like this: http://netbureau.com.br/blog/?p=123 This made my rss link back for good.
The remaining problem is that Wordpress gives me its own rewriterule which is:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /blog/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /blog/index.php [L]
Is there a way to to still use the first rule to apply to the whole site except the /blo/ folder and apply the WP rule only to the /blog/ folder?
I've tried different combinations but without luck so far. I could only have the site without the custom links for the blog or the custom blog links and a 404 on the pages of the site.
Try:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/blog/?
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php
The !^/blog/? expression excludes any URI that starts with /blog
I have no experience with .htaccess, but I got a tip that it's very useful so I wanted to try this.
I now have a file called .htaccess, in my root folder.
The files contains this;
RewriteBase /
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^kellyvuijst\.nl [nc]
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.kellyvuijst.nl/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.html -f
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/$ $1.html
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(\.[a-zA-Z0-9]{1,5}|/)$
RewriteRule (.*)$ /$1/ [R=301,L]
What I'm trying to do here is create a 'www.mysite.com/portfolio/' instead of 'mysite.com/portfolio.html' I used some tutorials on this and I think it's correct, but I'm not sure.
So now I have this file, and what now? The tutorials all show what to put in the file but not what to do with it? Do I need to call for it in every .html page I have? And how do I call for it?
A .htaccess file is automatically invoked by the server.
You have just to put this into your file :
RewriteBase /
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule www.mysite.com/portfolio/ /mysite.com/portfolio.html [L]
Hmm, you're using a lot of rules here to achieve just that.
Anyway, no you don't have to include that file. If you're hosting your site on a server with Apache it'll be included automatically. Can you also run PHP files or is your site just HTML? That's always an easy sign if you're also using Apache (not 100%, but often the go together).
If so, you could try just using these rules first:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.(.+)\.(.+)$ [nc]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.%1.%2/$1 [R=301,L]
If that always adds www to your address, even if you type in the URL without www at least you can be certain that it works.
Then, to make the .html disappear you can add this rule:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule $(.*)/$ /$1.html [L]
This should make every url that ends with a slash (like portfolio/) use a .html file instead (portfolio.html), but only if /portfolio/ isn't an actual directory on your website.
(I removed your url from the rules because this way it should also work if you use it on another website, or if you change your url. It should still do what you want)
Made sure the server is configured to allow htaccess files to override host options. So in your vhost/server config, you need:
AllowOverride All
I have an MSM install with four (licensed) sites. Three of them work perfectly and behave as they should. The fourth one, currently under construction seems to have a mind of its own. The home page shows up but attempts to add additional templates or template groups with content do not display. I only get
The requested URL /template-name/ was not found on this server.
I double checked and made sure the Enable Strict URLs was set to No and the templates are all synched properly. At this point I am repeating myself. Any clues?
Edited
I found out that if I insert index.php into the URL the other pages and templates will show, which leads me to believe that I have something wrong with the htacess file.
Here is the code I am using (which has worked just fine for other sites):
# BEGIN ExpressionEngine Rewrite
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond $1 !\.(gif|jpe?g|png)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?$1 [L]
</IfModule>
# END ExpressionEngine Rewrite
Any clues why this is not working correctly?
Turns out it was the htaccess file. I replaced the rewrite noted above with the following and it solved the problem:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 [L]
