url rewrite rule - .htaccess

so my first page is index, then from index i call a page called vetements where i include a get variable called cat wich is the category of wear, then when im on vetements page i call a sub category(here i stay on vetements page(the page redraws itsel with php) the problem is im unable to combine this 2 rules in htaccess
my links should look like:
vetements-Robes-Robes-courte
vetements is the name of the page itself
Robes is category
Robes-courte is sub category
right now this rule works when im on page vetements:
RewriteRule ^vetements-(.*)-(.*-.*) /vetements.php?cat=$1&sous_cat=$2 [L]
but it wont work when i go from index to vetements, to make it work from index to vetements i have to do the following:
RewriteRule ^vetements-(.*)-?(.*-.*)?
but then it wont work in vetements(when i redraw the page to call the sub category)
thanks for your help

maybe try a rewerite like this:
RewriteRule vetements-cat-(.*)-sous_cat-(.*)\.htm$ vetements.php?cat=$1&sous_cat=$
this is what was suggested by http://www.webconfs.com/url-rewrite-tool.php
You might also want to look at other tutorials and examples on creating so-called "search-friendly URLs" since that's essentially what you're trying to accomplish.

Does your index page have vetements-Robes-Robes-courte in the link to vetements page?

Odd URL RewriteRule Behaviour

Hoping someone with better experience can guide me on this.
Ref: https://www.donbur.co.uk/gb-en/news/index.php
This is a dynamically generated news summary list with a button link to article pages. Until last week, the button links worked fine.
Each link calls a URL
<a class="button" href="https://www.donbur.co.uk/news/<?php echo rawurlencode($row_newsResult['newsurlkey']);?>">Read full article</a>
This parses fine.
To process this link, I've then got an htaccess RewriteRule:
RewriteRule ^news/([^/]*)$ /gb-en/news/article.php?title=$1 [L]
The article.php file then uses the unique title to identify and show the full article.... or at least that's what it should do and has done.
For whatever reason, from the news index.php page, when the link is clicked, it just refreshes the page and re-writes the URL to
https://www.donbur.co.uk/gb-en/news/index.php/[uniquetitleparameter]?title=[uniquetitleparameter]
The parts in brackets [] obviously get populated with the rawurlencoded string.
I cannot for the life of me understand what is happening here - especially when I have a similar page, doing a very similar thing, works absolutely fine (https://www.donbur.co.uk/gb-en/features/feature-list.php)!!!!
This all started going wrong when I converted the site from http to https: but can't work out if that's relevant??
Turns out this was just a bad caching issue. Temporarily disabled cache as suggested and all works well.

htaccess not working properly for sub url having more slashes

I am having 2 websites. Call it 5p_front (http://localhost/5p_front/) (Developed in OctoberCMS) and 5p_group (http://localhost/5p_group/) (Developed in CakePHP)
In 5p_front i have an .htaccess file and in which i put a condition which will redirect to 5p_group website as soon as it finds a word having 5p_group_login in url. Here is code below
.htaccess
RewriteRule ^5p_group_login.*$ http://localhost/5p_group [L,R=301]
So if someone tries to go here for example http://localhost/5p_front/5p_group_login , they will simply be redirected to here http://localhost/5p_group/ .
This works fine from home page and other subpages like about page for example http://localhost/5p_front/we-are-5p-group .
However i have one product inner page http://localhost/5p_front/product/10 and if i hover the menu item which allows me to redirect to login page, it is showing this url http://localhost/5p_front/product/5p_group_login and hence when i click on it, i am unable to redirect at http://localhost/5p_group/ as it is only recirecting to this current url only http://localhost/5p_front/product/5p_group_login which should not be the case.
Additionally, My Menu is coming dynamically and i have used Static Pages plugin to create menus which OctoberCMS provides and i have created "Login" menu link like below.
How can i redirect the url at http://localhost/5p_group/ even if the user is at http://localhost/5p_front/product/10 and clicks on "Login" link which is showing http://localhost/5p_front/product/5p_group_login if i mouse hover on it.
Can someone guide me here what should i do in this scenario.
Thanks
Your rule
RewriteRule ^5p_group_login.*$ http://localhost/5p_group [L,R=301]
when placed in 5p_front/.htaccess will affect only URIs that begin with /5p_front/5p_group_login (because of the leading ^ in your pattern) so /5p_front/product/5p_group_login will not match.
If you want to rewrite URLs that have 5p_group_login anyhwere, just use:
RewriteRule 5p_group_login http://localhost/5p_group [L,R=301]

Need to Redirect Category Page On Home Page of Lightspeed Based Webstore

I have some trouble with redirection of my category page to Home page.
Have category page www.example.com/sale-baby that want to redirect on home www.example.com from .Htacess.
Using Lightspeed Webstore for the website.
I try to use simple rule but its not working.
If possible can give right suggestion for that.
Thanks
Adam
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.newdomain.com/$1 [L,R=301]
“L” indicates that it’s the last instruction and “R” means redirect, and “301” means a permanent redirect.
other way:
Position the cursor after the HEAD tag in the code.

How to remove bits from the url using the htaccess file?

Hi I am using joomla for my website and I would like to remove the bits in between my url.
The original URL:
"/calums/index.php/component/jsjobs/jsjobs/employer/"
The way I want it to be:
"/calums/employer/"
It would be great if some one can help me work out how to do it using the htaccess file.
Thanks.
first of all you need to enable SEF in Joomla to get rid of the /index.php/ part:
enable sef in global configuration (the first two checkboxes)
copy your htaccess.txt to .htaccess
This is transparent and should make your URL look like this:
/calums/component/jsjobs/jsjobs/employer/
Then, by looking at your URL, it appears the component jsjobs doesn't have a menu item associated. Menu items are associated with views, so you should go into menu manager and add a new menu item and try to setup menu items for jsjobs. You might not find one that matches exactly but you should be partway there.
Once a menu item is setup (and the cache is cleared) you should begin to see
/component/jsjobs replaced at a minimum. If there is no menu item that produces the right url, then you might have to create an .xml file in the component/view folder you desire. More details in this answer: Joomla Developement :: Probleme with URL Rewriting
my first answer on stackoverflow. try this:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^(\w)/(\w)/(.*) $1/index.php/component/jsjobs/jsjobs/$2/$3

.htaccess correct format for RewriteRule

I have a "JQueried" page using tabs - Tab A, Tab B etc the tabs hide/show content based on a link like this: Tab 1 I am using jQuery Address Plugin v1.4
http://www.asual.com/jquery/address/ to create new page titles and a new URL for each tab. If you do not know the Address Plugin recreates the URL so the link #tab1 creates the URL page.html#tab1 but without a page refresh. It also changes the page title but is there any way to create an RewriteRule so that http://domain/page.html#tab1 can be called by say http://domain/tab1.html (where tab1,tab2 etc. have proper names not tab!)
Have tried but don't seem to get it to work. e.g.
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule about.html /test.php#tab1 [NC]
suggestions please. Thanks in advance - oh the htaccess will go in the actual root folder
Sorry, I checked \#, it didn't work for me either.
How about redirecting to test.php?hash=tab1, and then:
if (isset($_GET["hash"]))
header ( "Location: test.php#".$_GET["hash"] );
Based on my comment above - I have just found this stackoverflow.com/questions/8606127/mod-rewrite-hash-tags so I guess can't be done –
