I have some htaccess rules which rewrite friendly URLs. Everything is working apart from one thing.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ /$1 [L,R] # <- for test, for prod use [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\s([^.]+)\.html [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.*?)/?$ $1.html [NC,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule . / [L,R=301]
This is a site with language subfolders, e.g.:
/fr/about.html
/en/about.html
With the above htaccess rules these urls come out like:
/fr/about
/en/about
However this also means my index pages URLs look like:
/fr/index
/en/index
What I would like, is for /index the URL looks like
/fr
/en
Which would mean they respect the trailing slash part of my above htaccess but remove index from the URL.
Any help much appreciated!
Try to add (before RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^...):
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\s(.*?)/index(\.html)?[\s?] [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1 [R=301,L]

RewriteEngine ON
RewriteRule ^video$ video.php [L]
the above line works
example.com/video is interpret as example.com/video.php
now I need example.com/video?id=5&s=lorem-ipsum
to interpret as example.com/video/5/lorem-ipsum - and vice versa
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} video?id=([^\s&]+)&s=([^\s&]+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1/%2? [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^([\w-]+)/([\w-]+)/?$ video?id=$1&s=$2 [L,QSA]
RewriteRule ^([\w-]+)/([\w-]+)/?$ video?/$1/$2 [L,QSA]
doesn't work - in both directions
pls help
With your shown attempts, please try following .htaccess rules file. These rules are assuming you want to infernally rewrite to index.php you can change php file name in 2nd set of rules as per your requirement.
Make sure to clear your browser cache before testing your URLs.
RewriteEngine ON
##External redirect Rules from here..
##Redirect 301 to example.com/video/5/lorem-ipsum from example.com/video?id=5&s=lorem-ipsum
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/(video)\?id=([^&]*)&s=(\S+)\s [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%1/%2/%3? [R=301,L]
##Internal rewrite for example.com/video?id=5&s=lorem-ipsum
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^video/([^/]*)/(.*)/?$ index.php?id=$1&s=$2 [QSA,NC,L]
original url is one of the following:
example.com
example.com/index.php
example.com/index.php?c=lorem
if example.com - nothing should be done
if example.com/index.php - it should be visible as example.com and here is my code - works fine:
RewriteEngine ON
RewriteRule ^index\.php/?$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}/ [NC,R=301]
RewriteRule ^/?$ index.php [L]
if example.com/index.php?c=lorem it should be visible as example.com/lorem
and lorem should be accessible by php in both cases:
if a user type example.com/index.php?c=lorem or
a user type example.com/lorem
pls help
Could you please try following, based on your shown samples.
Please do clear your browser cache before testing your URLs.
RewriteEngine ON
##This rule is for handling index.php file in uri.
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^$
RewriteRule ^index\.php/?$ / [R=301,NC,L]
##This rule is to redirect from index.php?c=lorem to lorem in uri.
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} index\.php\?c=(lorem)\s [NC]
RewriteRule ^ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/%1? [R=301,L,NE]
##Rule for non-existing files/directories to index.php with variables.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?c=$1 [L]
OR: Above is for specifically lorem in case your query string could be anything then try following.
RewriteEngine ON
##This rule is for handling index.php file in uri.
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^$
RewriteRule ^index\.php/?$ / [R=301,NC,L]
##This rule is to redirect from index.php?c=lorem to lorem in uri.
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} index\.php\?c=([^\s&]*) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/%1? [R=301,L,NE]
##Rule for non-existing files/directories to index.php with variables.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?c=$1 [L]
You may use these rules in your site root .htaccess:
DirectoryIndex index.php
RewriteEngine On
# remove index.php
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /index\.php\s [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^(.*/)index\.php$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1 [L,R=301,NE]
# external redirect from actual URL to pretty one
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/+index\.php\?c=([^\s&]+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%1? [R=301,L,NE]
# internal forward from pretty URL to actual one
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^/.]+)/?$ index.php?c=$1 [L,QSA]
.htaccess
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/index\.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule .* index.php [L]
With this setup the page /foo/bar is accessible under the pretty URL example.com/foo/bar while the ugly URL example.com/index.php/foo/bar is still valid. What I need to achieve is a permanent redirection from example.com/index.php/foo/bar to example.com/foo/bar.
RewriteRule .* index.php [R=301,L] doesn't work.
RewriteRule (.*) index.php/$1 [R=301,L] does the exact opposite, it redirects from example.com/foo/bar to example.com/index.php/foo/bar. Please help me out!
I recommend writing this:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
# remove index.php from / OR any /dir
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /index\.php [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^(.*/)index\.php$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1 [L,R=301,NE]
# redirect rule to remove /index.php/ from start
RewriteRule ^index\.php(/.*) $1 [L,R=301,NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/index\.php [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
In the new rule, we match a pattern using regex ^index\.php(/.*) which matches a URI that starts with /index.php/ followed by zero or more of any characters. (/.*) is our match and the capture group after /index.php which is used as back-reference i.e. $1 (string that we've captured in group #1) in target to get a URI after /index.php as desired.

.htaccess tips and tricks
How can I have this in my htaccess:
/page.php => redirects to /page
/page => shows the page.php
/index => redirects to root
And how to remove trailing slashes from all URLs, specially the root one?
Although, I'm not familiar enough with Apache configs, but I could find these codes:
# To remove .php extension
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.php [NC,L]
# To remove trailing slashes
RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ /$1 [L,R=301]
# To redirect /index to root (not sure if it works correctly)
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^.*/index
RewriteRule ^(.*)index.php$ /$1 [R=301,L]
Could you please help me with the scenario and have it in one small code?
Thanks
According to answers, I could solve the problem using the codes below in my .htaccess file:
# To remove .php extension
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\ (.*)\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1 [R=301,L]
# To remove trailing slash
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ $1 [R=301,L]
# To check whether the file exists then set it back internally
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule ^.*$ $0.php [L]
# To redirect /index to root
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^.*/index
RewriteRule ^(.*)index.php$ /$1 [R=301,L]
Now, I got a new problem and that is when I browse the files with a trailing slash, it redirects me to somewhere else and occurs a 404 (page not found) response, like this:
http://domain.tld/page/ => http://domain.tld/page/home/user/public_html/domain.tld/page
Also, if I move the second part to the end or even remove it completely, the server sends me a 500 (internal server error) response.
Finally with a little research, I could find the solution for previous problem using this advice:
https://stackoverflow.com/a/27264788/5420319
So, I've changed one of the codes from this:
# To remove trailing slash
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ $1 [R=301,L]
To this:
# To remove trailing slash
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} /(.*)/$
RewriteRule ^ /%1 [R=301,L]
And I also moved this part to the top regardless of being effective.
According the the answers and my own research, this would be the final answer:
# To remove trailing slash
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} /(.*)/$
RewriteRule ^ /%1 [R=301,L]
# To remove .php extension
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\ (.*)\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1 [R=301,L]
# To check whether the file exists then set it back internally
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule ^.*$ $0.php [L]
# To redirect /index to root
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^.*/index
RewriteRule ^(.*)index.php$ /$1 [R=301,L]
Redirecting page.php to /page:
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\ /page\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /page [R=301,L]
Now, setting back internally to page.php:
RewriteRule ^page$ /page.php [NC,L]
Remove trailing slashes:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ $1 [R=301,L]
Now, checking whether a file for /some/page/foo such that /some/page/foo.php exists:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule ^.*$ $0.php [L]
A cleaned up and simplified version of the accepted answer is:
# To remove trailing slash
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ $1 [R=301,L]
# To remove .php extension
RewriteRule ^(.*)\.php$ $1 [R=301,L]
# To check whether the file exists then set it back internally
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule ^.*$ $0.php [L]

You can play with that.
i know there are many questions like "How do i remove the .php extension, so that /test/ will be /test.php"
but if the user directly goes to test.php it doesnt replace the extension.
So I want to replace the .php it should be /.
here is the part of the .htacces I'm using:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule stuff\.php /other_stuff/ [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/$ $1.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(\.[a-zA-Z0-9]{1,5}|/)$
RewriteRule (.*)$ /$1/ [R=301,L]
You need to do the check against the actual request instead of the URI (which gets rewritten by other rules). The %{THE_REQUEST} variable doesn't change in the course of the rewrite engine. Try adding these rules right below the RewriteEngine directive:
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^(GET|HEAD)\ /([^/]+)\.php(\?|\ |$)
RewriteRule ^ /%2/ [L,R=301]
