I'm working on an add-on (for a CMS) to include news. To prevent creating many index-files I tried to use redirection with htaccess, but it seems to be complex for me ;-)
I'm using a .htaccess for the CMS in the root directory:
ErrorDocument 404 404.php
RewriteEngine On
# Redirect from http to https
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^domain.tld$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://domain.tld/$1 [L,R=301]
# If called directly - redirect to short url version
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/page/intro.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} /page
RewriteRule ^page/(.*)$ /$1 [L,R=301]
# Send the request to the index.php for processing
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(page|backend|framework|include|languages|media|account|search|temp|templates/.*)$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([\/\sa-zA-Z0-9._-]+)$ /index.php?$1 [QSA,L]
# allow robots.txt (all other txt are denied before)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/robots\.txt$ [nocase]
RewriteRule \.txt$ - [forbidden,last]
The current structure:
--> page/
----> folder1/accessfile.php
----> folder1/.htaccess
I'd like to redirect from:
/page/folder1/accessfile/lorem/ipsum
and
/page/folder1/accessfile/lorem/ipsum/ #(folders that doesn't exist)
to:
/page/folder1/accessfile.php
I'd tried using this in page/folder1/.htaccess:
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^accessfile/.*$ ./accessfile.php
But this doesn't work :-(
Put the htaccess file in your root directory alongside the page/ directory. If your htaccess file already resides there, put the rewrite rules before the # If called directly - redirect to short url version line.
Here's what you need:
Options +FollowSymLinks
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
# Make sure it's not an actula file/dir being accessed
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
# Make sure request uri does not contain the actual file
# name, avoiding recursive rewrite loops
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !accessfile\.php
RewriteRule page/folder1/accessfile/?(.*)? /page/folder1/accessfile.php?q=$1 [R,L,QSA]
</IfModule>
## Results
# page/folder1/accessfile => page/folder1/accessfile.php?q=
# page/folder1/accessfile/foo => page/folder1/accessfile.php?q=foo
# page/folder1/accessfile/foo/bar => page/folder1/accessfile.php?q=foo/bar
# page/folder1/accessfile/foo/bar/baz => page/folder1/accessfile.php?q=foo/bar/baz
As you see, for convenience, the rewrite rule rewrites the request URI as query string parameters. So the PHP file has access to the passed data using $_GET['q'].
If you wish to preserve the clean URL, and rewrite the request to the php file under the hood, drop that R flag.
When setting up a fresh Laravel installation, we have to run it using domain.com/public instead of domain.com.
I googled after this problem and I saw that this could be because of mod_rewrite not being enabled. However, we are running Plesk on our server and their documentation at http://download1.parallels.com/Plesk/PP12/12.0/Doc/en-US/online/plesk-administrator-guide/index.htm?fileName=74206.htm says:
The mod_rewrite module is enabled by default in Apache that comes with Plesk for Linux. To make use of the functionality, you will need to create an .htaccess file containing the desired rewrite rules - refer to the Apache documentation for more information.
Laravel is working fine, if I move the contents of public in the main folder, and the rest in a /laravel folder (simply have to adopt the main index.php file).
However I would like to keep the original file structure.
Any tips?
Just use .htaccess to redirect from / to /public. Maybe similar to this
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^public
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ public/$1 [L]
You need two .htaccess files. One inside the Laravel Project and the other one inside your domain.com
Laravel Project (/var/www/vhosts/domain.com/public/.htaccess)
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
<IfModule mod_negotiation.c>
Options -MultiViews -Indexes
</IfModule>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ public/index.php?$1 [L,QSA]
# Handle Authorization Header
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} .
RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]
# Redirect Trailing Slashes If Not A Folder...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (.+)/$
RewriteRule ^ %1 [L,R=301]
# Send Requests To Front Controller...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
</IfModule>
main domain (/var/www/vhosts/domain.com/.htaccess)
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^public
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ public/$1 [L]
I'm working on a Laravel Lumen project and issue something strange. I created a restful API on some of the routes. If I call the API directly from my browser everything seems to work. However if I use an iPhone client application of a debugging interface an additional slash is added.
The API is currently located at:
http://.../public/index.php/api/fever?api&items
Whenever an iPhone application or debug tool is used the following location is requested:
http://.../public/index.php/api/fever/?api&items
This results in a 'page not found' error. Is is possible to use the apache htaccess rewrite rule to redirect all api/fever/? to api/fever? ??
The htaccess file has to be located in the public folder, which is located under a sub folder under the main website.
Thanks in advance
current htaccess
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
<IfModule mod_negotiation.c>
Options -MultiViews
</IfModule>
RewriteEngine On
# Redirect Trailing Slashes If Not A Folder...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*[^/])$ /$1/ [L,R=301]
# Handle Front Controller...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
</IfModule>
You can try this redirect rule at top of your site root .htaccess:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
<IfModule mod_negotiation.c>
Options -MultiViews
</IfModule>
RewriteEngine On
# Redirect Trailing Slashes If Not A Folder...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} !.*/api/fever/ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*[^/])$ /$1/ [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/(.*api/fever/\S*)\s [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%1 [L,R=301,NC]
# Handle Front Controller...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]

I have a problem whereby google has indexed some pages with the wrong url.
The url they are indexing is:
http://www.example.com/index.php/section1/section2
I need it to redirect to:
http://www.example.com/section1/section2
.htaccess isn't my forte, so any help would be much appreciated.
The original answer is actually correct, but lacks explanation. I would like to add some explanations and modifications.
I suggest reading this short introduction https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/rewrite/intro.html (15mins) and reference these 2 pages while reading.
https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_rewrite.html
https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/rewrite/flags.html
This is the basic rule to hide index.php from the URL. Put this in your root .htaccess file.
mod_rewrite must be enabled with PHP and this will work for the PHP version higher than 5.2.6.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule (.*) /index.php/$1 [L]
Think %{REQUEST_FILENAME} as the the path after host.
E.g. https://www.example.com/index.html, %{REQUEST_FILENAME} is /index.html
So the last 3 lines means, if it's not a regular file !-f and not a directory !-d, then do the RewriteRule.
As for RewriteRule formats:
So RewriteRule (.*) /index.php/$1 [L] means, if the 2 RewriteCond are satisfied, it (.*) would match everything after the hostname. . matches any single character , .* matches any characters and (.*) makes this a variables can be references with $1, then replace with /index.php/$1. The final effect is to add a preceding index.php to the whole URL path.
E.g. for https://www.example.com/hello, it would produce, https://www.example.com/index.php/hello internally.
Another key problem is that this indeed solve the question. Internally, (I guess) it always need https://www.example.com/index.php/hello, but with rewriting, you could visit the site without index.php, apache adds that for you internally.
Btw, making an extra .htaccess file is not very recommended by the Apache doc.
Rewriting is typically configured in the main server configuration
setting (outside any <Directory> section) or inside <VirtualHost>
containers. This is the easiest way to do rewriting and is recommended
To remove index.php from the URL, and to redirect the visitor to the non-index.php version of the page:
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^GET.*index\.php [NC]
RewriteRule (.*?)index\.php/*(.*) /$1$2 [R=301,NE,L]
This will cleanly redirect /index.php/myblog to simply /myblog.
Using a 301 redirect will preserve Google search engine rankings.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /(.*)index\.php($|\ |\?)
RewriteRule ^ /%1 [R=301,L]
Assuming the existent url is
http://example.com/index.php/foo/bar
and we want to convert it into
http://example.com/foo/bar
You can use the following rule :
RewriteEngine on
#1) redirect the client from "/index.php/foo/bar" to "/foo/bar"
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /index\.php/(.+)\sHTTP [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%1 [NE,L,R]
#2)internally map "/foo/bar" to "/index.php/foo/bar"
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ /index.php/$1 [L]
In the spep #1 we first match against the request string and capture everything after the /index.php/ and the captured value is saved in %1 var. We then send the browser to a new url.
The #2 processes the request internally. When the browser arrives at /foo/bar , #2rule rewrites the new url to the orignal location.
Steps to remove index.php from url for your wordpress website.
Check you should have mod_rewrite enabled at your server.
To check whether it's enabled or not - Create 1 file phpinfo.php at your root folder with below command.
<?php
phpinfo?();
?>
Now run this file - www.yoursite.com/phpinfo.php and it will show mod_rewrite at Load modules section.
If not enabled then perform below commands at your terminal.
sudo a2enmod rewrite
sudo service apache2 restart
Make sure your .htaccess is existing in your WordPress root folder, if not create one .htaccess file
Paste this code at your .htaccess file :-
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
Further make permission of .htaccess to 666 so that it become writable and now you can do changes in your wordpress permalinks.
Now go to Settings -> permalinks -> and change to your needed url format.
Remove this code /index.php/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%/
and insert this code on Custom Structure: /%postname%/
If still not succeeded then check your hosting, mine was digitalocean server, so I cleared it myself
Edited the file /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf
Added this line after DocumentRoot /var/www/html
<Directory /var/www/html>
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
Restart your apache server
Note: /var/www/html will be your document root
Do the following steps
1. Make sure that the hosting / your pc mod_rewrite module is active. if not active then try to activate in a way, open the httpd.conf file. You can check this in the phpinfo.php to find out.
change this setting :
#LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so
to be and restart wamp
LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so
2. Then go to .htaccess file, and try to modify to be:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)\?*$ index.php/$1 [L,QSA]
if above does not work try with this:
RewriteEngine on
# if a directory or a file exists, use it directly
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
# otherwise forward it to index.php
RewriteRule . index.php
3. Move .htaccess file to root directory, where is index.php there.
www OR root folder
- index.php
- .htaccess
Some may get a 403 with the method listed above using mod_rewrite. Another solution to rewite index.php out is as follows:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
# Put your installation directory here:
RewriteBase /
# Do not enable rewriting for files or directories that exist
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]
</IfModule>
I have used many codes from the above mentioned sections for removing index.php form the base url. But it was not working from my end. So, you can use this code which I have used and its working properly.
If you really need to remove index.php from the base URL then just put this code in your htaccess.
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^GET.*index\.php [NC]
RewriteRule (.*?)index\.php/*(.*) /$1$2 [R=301,NE,L]
This will work, use the following code in .htaccess file
RewriteEngine On
# Send would-be 404 requests to Craft
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(favicon\.ico|apple-touch-icon.*\.png)$ [NC]
RewriteRule (.+) index.php?p=$1 [QSA,L]
I don't have to many bulky code to give out just a little snippet solved the issue for me.
i have https://example.com/entitlements/index.php rather i want anyone that types it to get error on request event if you type https://example.com/entitlements/index
you will still get error since there's this word "index" is contained there will always be an error thrown back though the content of index.php will still be displayed properly
cletus post on "https://stackoverflow.com/a/1055655/12192635" which
solved it
Edit your .htaccess file with the below
to redirect people visiting https://example.com/entitlements/index.php to 404 page
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \.php[\ /?].*HTTP/
RewriteRule ^.*$ - [R=404,L]
to redirect people visiting https://example.com/entitlements/index to 404 page
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \index[\ /?].*HTTP/
RewriteRule ^.*$ - [R=404,L]
Not withstanding we have already known that the above code works with already existing codes on stack see where i applied the code above just below the all codes at it end.
# The following will allow you to use URLs such as the following:
#
# example.com/anything
# example.com/anything/
#
# Which will actually serve files such as the following:
#
# example.com/anything.html
# example.com/anything.php
#
# But *only if they exist*, otherwise it will report the usual 404 error.

For whatever reason I can't seem to get this right, I've looked at many examples on here and apache's website. I'm trying to force www.domain.com instead of domain.com on EITHER http or https but I am not trying to force https over http.
the following code seems to work for all https connections but http will not redirect to www.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.domain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://www.domain.com%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301]
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.domain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ http://www.domain.com%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301]
You don't need the second RewriteEngine directive. That may or may not be causing a parse issue making the second set of rules not work. To test whether this is the case, try switching the order of the two blocks you have.
It's good practice to use L to modify requests that are definitely the last. So, change [R=301] to [R=301,L] both times it appears.
Largely as a matter of style, I would consider changing the RewriteRule directives to something like (using http or https as appropriate):
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com$1 [R=301,L,QSA]
Your rules seem to be fine. You can combine them as follows:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.example\.com$
RewriteCond %{HTTPS}s on(s)|
RewriteRule ^ http%1://www.example.com%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
Also note the additional L flag to stop the rewriting process after this rule has been applied.
In case anyone still need an answer to this. Use another .htaccess. Get guide from here, I found it and it looks good: http://www.farinspace.com/codeigniter-htaccess-file/

Remember, once you have your CodeIgniter htaccess file setup, you will want to go into your “/system/application/config/config.php”, find the following:
$config['index_page'] = "index.php";
and change it to:
$config['index_page'] = "";
