For my website i want to rewrite my url to:
www.xxx.com/en/index.php instead of www.xxx.com/index.php?language=en
www.xxx.com/nl/index.php instead of www.xxx.com/index.php?language=nl
www.xxx.com should be www.xxx.com/en/
This actually works i have added these rewrite rules
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} ^www\.xxx\.com(\/?)$
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.xxx.com/en/$1 [R=302,L]
RewriteRule ^(nl|en)/(.*)$ $2?language=$1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
The R=302 is added for testing purposes
Are the above given RewriteCond and RewriteRule good enough or are there other, maybe shorter or better ways to rewrite .com/ to .com/en/
If the url is edited to a language that does not exists i want this user to be redirect to english.
Example
www.xxx.com/es/index.php is requested, this language does not exists or no language is given i want the user to be redirect to www.xxx.com/en/index.php
I tried the following:
RewriteRule ^([^n][^l]|[^e][^n])/(.*)$ en/$2%{QUERY_STRING} [L,R=302]
This works in some cases but if www.xxx.com/ne/index.php is entered it is considered as valid and not rewritten. www.xxx.com/index.php is also not rewritten to www.xxx.com/en/index.php
Could someone help me to fix this?
Thanks in advance!
Try this rule:
RewriteCond $1 !^(en|nl)$
RewriteRule ^([a-z]{2})/(.*)$ en/$2 [L,R=302]

I need to Rewrite the old urls generated by ISS to a new system we have build (Joomla).
The url's had to be google friendly. What we want to happen:
Rewrite http://example.com/test.asp?index=3 to http://example.com/about
I've used a few Rewrite's i knew, but they dont work:
RewriteRule ^/test.asp?index=3 / [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^/test.asp?index(.*)3 / [R=301,L
What pice of code am i missing/doeing wrong?
Kind regards.
You must use QUERY_STRING to check query string.
You can use this code in your htaccess (in document root folder)
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^index=3$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^test\.asp$ /about [R=301,L]
Note: put this rule before Joomla's rules
I know this sounds like so many other questions here, but I can't seem to find the answer.
Say you are on:
www.domain.com/folderA/folder2/folder3/
I want that to redirect to:
www.domain.com/folderB/folder2/folder3/
So the whole structure stays the same.. it just redirects.
Now so far I have:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/folderA [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /folderB/$1 [R=301,L]
But when I use that, it'll just do
www.domain.com/folderB/folderA/folder2/folder3/
What am I doing wrong? How do I get rid of that folderA?
The pattern ^(.*)$ includes also the prefix folderA. You must specify folderA explicitly in the pattern and capture only the latter part in the RewriteRule. Then you can drop the RewriteCond
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/?folderA/(.*)$ /folderB/$1 [R,L]
Never test with 301 enabled, see this answer Tips for debugging .htaccess rewrite rules for details.
Alright, title is REALLY sloppy.
Here's my problem: I have a news site and when you go to the main page (domain.com) it redirects you to domain.com/news/top?geography=San_Francisco after it figures out your geography.
How do I use the .htaccess so that it goes from domain.com/news/top?geography=San_Francisco domain.com/San_Francisco/news/top ?
There are some similar questions, but I have not found one similar enough in that you're editing the URL as a furtherback subdirectory.
It should also be noted that I am using the Code Igniter framework for PHP and it normally has it as domain.com/index.php/news/top?geography=San_Francisco but I did a mod_rewrite already to get rid of the index.php. The code is as follows for that:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|robots\.txt)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]
Code I've tried:
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/news/top$ /news/top?geography=$1 [L,QSA]
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|robots\.txt)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]
Before the index.php rule that you have, try adding this:
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/news/top$ /news/top?geography=$1 [L,QSA]
You'll need to make sure the links you generate are in the form of domain.com/San_Francisco/news/top though.
But to take care of the links in the wild that still look like the old way, you have to match against the actual request:
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /news/top\?geography=([^&]+)
RewriteRule ^news/top$ /%1/news/top? [L,R=301]
This will 301 redirect the browser if someone goes to the link domain.com/news/top?geography=San_Francisco and make it so the browser's address bar says this: domain.com/San_Francisco/news/top. At which point the browser will send another request for the second URL, and you use the rule above to change it back into the one with a query string.
I am trying to rewrite all the old oscommerce links to a new website. But I am having trouble with part of the URL I need to rewrite.
The link looks like this:
http://www.domain.com/product_info.php?cPath=3_72&products_id=129&osCsid=6j3iabkldjcmgi3s1344lk1285
This rewrite works for the above link:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/product_info\.php$
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^cPath=3_72&products_id=129&osCsid=([A-Za-z0-9-_]+)$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/apple/air.html? [R=301,L]
But will not work for:
http://www.domain.com/product_info.php?cPath=3_72&products_id=129
My problem is that I want the rewrite to work no matter if the &osCsid=6j3iabkldjcmgi3s1344lk1285 part is included or not.
I think you can achieve this by not specifying the closing delimiter ($)
Give this a try:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/product_info\.php$
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^cPath=3_72&products_id=129
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/apple/air.html? [R=301,L]
By not putting the $ at the end of the regex string you are basically saying: match any string that starts with ..., no matter what comes after
Hope this helps :)
This should do the job just fine:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^cPath=3_72&products_id=129
RewriteRule ^product_info\.php$ http://www.domain.com/apple/air.html? [R=301,L]
There is no need for separate condition RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/product_info\.php$ -- this part can be (actually, SHOULD BE, for better performance) moved to RewriteRule.
This is enough ^cPath=3_72&products_id=129 -- it tells "When query strings STARTS with ...". No need to include optional/non-important parameters osCsid=([A-Za-z0-9-_]+).
This rule is to be placed in .htaccess file in website root folder. If placed elsewhere some small tweaking may be required.
I am writing a multi language website. Therefore I would like some help with a URL rewrite problem.
Case:
When someone visits www.example.com without adding a country code (nl, en, de) the htaccess redirects the visitor to www.example.com/nl/ i.g.
RewriteRule !(nl|en|de)(.*).* /nl/ [R=301,L]
The website is renewed and has got many url's directing to the website (google, forums). i.g. www.example.com/oldpage-nomore.html. What I would like is the following; the htaccess should detect that the request uri doesn't contain nl,en or de and should redirect to pagenotfound.php. RewriteRule ^(.*)\.html /public/oldurl?section=nl¬found=$1$2&basehref=true&%1 [PT,L] the problem with this Rewrite rule is: all files ending in .html are being redirected.
What I am looking for is the following:
When someone visits www.example.com and no request uri is entered this should redirect to www.example.com/nl/
When there is a requested uri and this doens't contain a countrycode (nl|en|de) than redirect to pagenotfound.php
I tried the following but it doens't work:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^(nl|en|de)$
RewriteRule ^([a-z]{2})/(.*)\.html$ /pagenotfound.php?page=$2 [L,R=404]
I hope someone can help.
Thank you in advance.
Try to place this .htaccess file at the server root folder:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/?$
RewriteRule ^.*$ /nl/ [R]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(nl|en|de)
RewriteRule ^.*/(.*)\.html$ /pagenotfound.php?page=$2 [L,R=404]
(you probably made several mistakes, I tried to fix them)
I'm not sure with the first RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} regular expression - maybe remove the question mark or slash, I don't now... can't test now.
