On my website I only use the public_html to serve static files, and the index.php file acts as a sort of controller, loading files from another directory to make the structure a bit nicer.
My only issue is that the URLs wont function properly when rewritten.
The original url works, but the rewritten one doesn't because of the /.
Original URL : /index.php?page=auth/login
Rewritten URL : /auth/login
Only the original one works, this is my .htaccess file:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
<IfModule mod_negotiation.c>
Options -Indexes
</IfModule>
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/?$ index.php?page=$1 [QSA,L]
</IfModule>
Your regex specifically excludes paths with / in them. Try changing it to something very simple like
RewriteRule ^(.*?)/?$ index.php?page=$1 [QSA,L]
This will match anything, excluding a trailing slash
I want to redirect https://senturia.com.vn/senturia-nam-sai-gon/?gallery=170
to https://senturia.com.vn/senturia-nam-sai-gon/projects/nha-pho-thuong-mai-5mx12m/
I tried this .htaccess file
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} gallery=170 [NC]
RewriteRule (.*) /senturia-nam-sai-gon/project/nha-pho-thuong-mai-5mx12m/? [R=301,L]
</IfModule>
But it's not work
Your configuration looks fine. I highly recommend making sure that mod_rewrite is enabled on the server. Also, make sure that the .htaccess file is located in the correct place. If your are using some CMS with a single index.php file, the .htaccess should sit on the same level as that file. If senturia-nam-sai-gon is an actual directory on your server with its own index.php file, then the .htaccess should sit in that folder.
Here is how I would do it in a CMS:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (?:^|&)gallery=170 [NC]
RewriteRule ^senturia-nam-sai-gon/ /senturia-nam-sai-gon/project/nha-pho-thuong-mai-5mx12m/? [R=301,L,NC]
</IfModule>
Detailed break-down:
RewriteEngine on simply enables URL rewriting
RewriteBase / sets the base of all URLs (in this case simply /)
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING (?:^|&)galler=170 [NC] applies the following rule, if the GET parameters contain gallery=170. The [NC] flag makes the condition ignore upper- and lower-case
RewriteRule ^senturia-nam-sai-gon/ /senturia-nam-sai-gon/project/nha-pho-thuong-mai-5mx12m/? [R=301,L,NC] redirects /senturia-nam-sai-gon/ to /senturia-nam-sai-gon/project/nha-pho-thuong-mai-5mx12m/ with a status-code of 301 ("Moved permanently"). The ? at the end of the rule removes the querystring entirely. The L flag makes sure this is the last rule that gets applied. The NC flag does the same as before.
Yes, I've read the Apache manual and searched here. For some reason I simply cannot get this to work. The closest I've come is having it remove the extension, but it points back to the root directory. I want this to just work in the directory that contains the .htaccess file.
I need to do three things with the .htaccess file.
I need it to remove the .php
a. I have several pages that use tabs and the URL looks like page.php#tab - is this possible?
b. I have one page that uses a session ID appended to the URL to make sure you came from the right place, www.domain.example/download-software.php?abcdefg.
Is this possible? Also in doing this, do I need to remove .php from the links in my header nav include file? Should IE "support" be support?
I would like it to force www before every URL, so it's not domain.example, but www.domain.example/page.
I would like to remove all trailing slashes from pages.
I'll keep looking, trying, etc. Would being in a sub directory cause any issues?
Gumbo's answer in the Stack Overflow question How to hide the .html extension with Apache mod_rewrite should work fine.
Re 1) Change the .html to .php
Re a.) Yup, that's possible, just add #tab to the URL.
Re b.) That's possible using QSA (Query String Append), see below.
This should also work in a sub-directory path:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule !.*\.php$ %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php [QSA,L]
Apache mod_rewrite
What you're looking for is mod_rewrite,
Description: Provides a rule-based rewriting engine to rewrite
requested URLs on the fly.
Generally speaking, mod_rewrite works by matching the requested document against specified regular expressions, then performs URL rewrites internally (within the Apache process) or externally (in the clients browser). These rewrites can be as simple as internally translating example.com/foo into a request for example.com/foo/bar.
The Apache docs include a mod_rewrite guide and I think some of the things you want to do are covered in it. Detailed mod_rewrite guide.
Force the www subdomain
I would like it to force "www" before every URL, so its not domain.example but www.domain.example/page
The rewrite guide includes instructions for this under the Canonical Hostname example.
Remove trailing slashes (Part 1)
I would like to remove all trailing slashes from pages
I'm not sure why you would want to do this as the rewrite guide includes an example for the exact opposite, i.e., always including a trailing slash. The docs suggest that removing the trailing slash has great potential for causing issues:
Trailing Slash Problem
Description:
Every webmaster can sing a song about the problem of the trailing
slash on URLs referencing directories. If they are missing, the server
dumps an error, because if you say /~quux/foo instead of /~quux/foo/
then the server searches for a file named foo. And because this file
is a directory it complains. Actually it tries to fix it itself in
most of the cases, but sometimes this mechanism need to be emulated by
you. For instance after you have done a lot of complicated URL
rewritings to CGI scripts etc.
Perhaps you could expand on why you want to remove the trailing slash all the time?
Remove .php extension
I need it to remove the .php
The closest thing to doing this that I can think of is to internally rewrite every request document with a .php extension, i.e., example.com/somepage is instead processed as a request for example.com/somepage.php. Note that proceeding in this manner would would require that each somepage actually exists as somepage.php on the filesystem.
With the right combination of regular expressions this should be possible to some extent. However, I can foresee some possible issues with index pages not being requested correctly and not matching directories correctly.
For example, this will correctly rewrite example.com/test as a request for example.com/test.php:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php
But will make example.com fail to load because there is no example.com/.php
I'm going to guess that if you're removing all trailing slashes, then picking a request for a directory index from a request for a filename in the parent directory will become almost impossible. How do you determine a request for the directory 'foobar':
example.com/foobar
from a request for a file called foobar (which is actually foobar.php)
example.com/foobar
It might be possible if you used the RewriteBase directive. But if you do that then this problem gets way more complicated as you're going to require RewriteCond directives to do filesystem level checking if the request maps to a directory or a file.
That said, if you remove your requirement of removing all trailing slashes and instead force-add trailing slashes the "no .php extension" problem becomes a bit more reasonable.
# Turn on the rewrite engine
RewriteEngine on
# If the request doesn't end in .php (Case insensitive) continue processing rules
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.php$ [NC]
# If the request doesn't end in a slash continue processing the rules
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} [^/]$
# Rewrite the request with a .php extension. L means this is the 'Last' rule
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php [L]
This still isn't perfect -- every request for a file still has .php appended to the request internally. A request for 'hi.txt' will put this in your error logs:
[Tue Oct 26 18:12:52 2010] [error] [client 71.61.190.56] script '/var/www/test.peopleareducks.com/rewrite/hi.txt.php' not found or unable to stat
But there is another option, set the DefaultType and DirectoryIndex directives like this:
DefaultType application/x-httpd-php
DirectoryIndex index.php index.html
Update 2013-11-14 - Fixed the above snippet to incorporate nicorellius's observation
Now requests for hi.txt (and anything else) are successful, requests to example.com/test will return the processed version of test.php, and index.php files will work again.
I must give credit where credit is due for this solution as I found it Michael J. Radwins Blog by searching Google for php no extension apache.
Remove trailing slashes
Some searching for apache remove trailing slashes brought me to some Search Engine Optimization pages. Apparently some Content Management Systems (Drupal in this case) will make content available with and without a trailing slash in URLs, which in the SEO world will cause your site to incur a duplicate content penalty. Source
The solution seems fairly trivial, using mod_rewrite we rewrite on the condition that the requested resource ends in a / and rewrite the URL by sending back the 301 Permanent Redirect HTTP header.
Here's his example which assumes your domain is blamcast.net and allows the the request to optionally be prefixed with www..
#get rid of trailing slashes
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?blamcast\.net$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.+)/$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]
Now we're getting somewhere. Lets put it all together and see what it looks like.
Mandatory www., no .php, and no trailing slashes
This assumes the domain is foobar.example and it is running on the standard port 80.
# Process all files as PHP by default
DefaultType application/x-httpd-php
# Fix sub-directory requests by allowing 'index' as a DirectoryIndex value
DirectoryIndex index index.html
# Force the domain to load with the www subdomain prefix
# If the request doesn't start with www...
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.foobar\.com [NC]
# And the site name isn't empty
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^$
# Finally rewrite the request: end of rules, don't escape the output, and force a 301 redirect
RewriteRule ^/?(.*) http://www.foobar.example/$1 [L,R,NE]
#get rid of trailing slashes
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?foobar\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.+)/$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]
The 'R' flag is described in the RewriteRule directive section. Snippet:
redirect|R [=code] (force redirect) Prefix Substitution with
http://thishost[:thisport]/ (which makes the new URL a URI) to force
a external redirection. If no code is given, a HTTP response of 302
(MOVED TEMPORARILY) will be returned.
Final Note
I wasn't able to get the slash removal to work successfully. The redirect ended up giving me infinite redirect loops. After reading the original solution closer I get the impression that the example above works for them because of how their Drupal installation is configured. He mentions specifically:
On a normal Drupal site, with clean URLs enabled, these two addresses
are basically interchangeable
In reference to URLs ending with and without a slash. Furthermore,
Drupal uses a file called .htaccess to tell your web server how to
handle URLs. This is the same file that enables Drupal's clean URL
magic. By adding a simple redirect command to the beginning of your
.htaccess file, you can force the server to automatically remove any
trailing slashes.
In addition to other answers above,
You may also try this to remove .php extensions completely from your file and to avoid infinite loop:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\s([^.]+)\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*?)/?$ $1.php [NC,L]
This code will work in Root/.htaccess,
Be sure to change the RewriteBase if you want to place this to a htaccess file in sub directory.
On Apache 2.4 and later, you can also use the END flag to prevent infinite loop error. The following example works same as the above on Apache 2.4,
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^(.+)\.php$ /$1 [R,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*?)/?$ /$1.php [NC,END]
The following code works fine for me:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php
After changing the parameter AllowOverride from None to All in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf (Debian 8), following this, the .htaccess file just must contain:
Options +MultiViews
AddHandler php5-script php
AddType text/html php
And it was enough to hide .php extension from files
I've ended up with the following working code:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /([^.]+)\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%1 [NC,L,R]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule ^ %{REQUEST_URI}.php [NC,L]
Here's a method if you want to do it for just one specific file:
RewriteRule ^about$ about.php [L]
Ref: http://css-tricks.com/snippets/htaccess/remove-file-extention-from-urls/
Try this
The following code will definitely work
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /([^.]+)\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%1 [NC,L,R]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule ^ %{REQUEST_URI}.php [NC,L]
Not sure why the other answers didn't work for me but this code I found did:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.php [NC,L]
That is all that is in my htaccess and example.com/page shows example.com/page.php
To remove the .php extension from a PHP file for example yoursite.example/about.php to yoursite.example/about: Open .htaccess (create new one if not exists) file from root of your website, and add the following code.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.php [NC,L]
To remove the .html extension from a HTML file for example yoursite.example/about.html to yoursite.example/about: Open .htaccess (create new one if not exists) file from root of your website, and add the following code.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.html [NC,L]
Reference: How to Remove PHP Extension from URL
Try this:-
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule !.*\.php$ %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php [QSA,L]
I found 100% working Concept for me:
# Options is required by Many Hosting
Options +MultiViews
RewriteEngine on
# For .php & .html URL's:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.php [NC,L]
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.html [NC,L]
Use this code in Root of your website .htaccess file like :
offline - wamp\www\YourWebDir
online - public_html/
If it doesn't work correct, then change the settings of your Wamp
Server: 1) Left click WAMP icon 2) Apache 3) Apache Modules 4) Left
click rewrite_module
Here is the code that I used to hide the .php extension from the filename:
## hide .php extension
# To redirect /dir/foo.php to /dir/foo
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\s([^.]+)\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1 [R=301,L,NC]
Note: R=301 is for permanent redirect and is recommended to use for SEO purpose. However if one wants just a temporary redirect replace it with just R
Try
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php [L]
If you're coding in PHP and want to remove .php so you can have a URL like:
http://yourdomain.example/blah -> which points to /blah.php
This is all you need:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteRule ^(.+)/$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]
</IfModule>
If your URL in PHP like http://yourdomain.example/demo.php than comes like
http://yourdomain.example/demo
This is all you need:
create file .htaccess
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
#RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.html [NC,L]
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.php [NC,L]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} "^[^ ]* .*?\.php[? ].*$"
RewriteRule .* - [L,R=404]
I have to create a page handler, which should read the URL, and do specific operations based on querystring.
I'd need to use .htaccess to do some URL rewriting thing to point everything at a certain file which does the processing, in such a fashion:
https://example.com/folder/page1/
https://example.com/folder/page2/
And the processing file is https://example.com/folder/index.php
Is there any way to do that (possibly by removing the index.php part)?
try this out and see if this helps you achieve what you are looking for.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /folder/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . index.php [L]
</IfModule>
The above code is taken for reference from WordPress and it should work when the "RewriteBase /folder/" folder name is updated with your folder and .htaccess file has to be placed in the root/folder directory where your index.php file is located.
I want to redirect all incoming url requests to index.php via .htaccess
Example:
/johngroup -> /index.php?do=johngroup
/addmem -> /index.php?do=addmem
/autoshare -> /index.php?do=autoshare
/spamwall -> /index.php?do=spamwall
index.php will handle all requests.
Following code is not working:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/([A-Za-z0-9_-.]*).php? do=(.*)
RewriteRule .* /%1.php?do=%2 [R=301,L]
</IfModule>
This works for me:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^index.php - [L] # 1
RewriteRule ^(.*).php$ index.php?do=$1 [L] # 2
RewriteRule ^(\w+)$ index.php?do=$1 # 3
Explanation:
If urls starts with /index.php, stop processing. Otherwise proceed to next rule.
If url format is /x.php, rewrite to /index.php?do=x and stop processing further. Otherwise proceed to next rule.
Convert any url e.g /test, to /index.php?do=test.
You can also test and tweak htaccess rules using these sites:
Htaccess Tester
Rewrite Rule Tester
example.com/test.php to example.com/index.php?do=test
Try the following in your root .htaccess file:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^index\.php$
RewriteRule ^(\w+)\.php$ index.php?do=$1 [L]
The above will internally rewrite /test.php to /index.php?do=test (ie. /test.php remains in the browsers address bar), regardless of whether test.php exists as a physical file on the filesystem. Basically, any file that has a .php file extension. The RewriteCond directive prevents a rewrite loop.
If you only need to rewrite URLs that would map to physical files, eg. test.php is a physical file on the filesystem then add an additional condition to check for the existence of this file before rewriting:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^index\.php$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f
RewriteRule ^(\w+)\.php$ index.php?do=$1 [L]
