I want URL to look like www.example.com/chat/91 but really the page is www.example.com/room.php?id=91 I searched online for apache rewrite example but I didn't see any examples in this format to use,
Use this RewriteRule in your .htaccess file:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^chat/([^/]*)$ /room.php?id=$1 [L]
Make sure you clear your cache before testing this.

This is probably incredibly simple, but I've gone through several links and can't find the answer that I'm looking for.
My URL:
www.website.org/shows/index.php?id=1
Desired Rewrite:
www.website.org/shows/id/index.php
I know I need to use the RewriteRule in .htaccess for Apache, I just can't figure out how to get it to match then rewrite.
My failed attempt:
RewriteRule ^/shows/index.php?id=([0-9])$ shows/$1/index.php
Your rewrite rule should be like that:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^id=([0-9]*)$
RewriteRule ^shows/index\.php$ /shows/%1/index.php
There is a very good official documentation, which explains how to access quesry sting in rewrite rules: https://simonecarletti.com/blog/2009/01/apache-query-string-redirects/
I have a sneaking suspicion this is not possible, but figured I would ask regardless.
Is it at all possible to take a URL passed to a server in the form of:
http://domain.com/index.php?Action=Controller/Action&one=1&two=2&three=3
And rewrite it to appear as:
http://domain.com/Controller/Action/1/2/3
I am trying to clean up an borderline ancient project to support "Pretty URLs" and I would really like to make the URLs display a bit nicer. I know I could setup a 301 header redirect to the new URL, but I would prefer to avoid that overhead if at all possible.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!
To get
http://domain.com/index.php?Action=Controller/Action&one=1&two=2&three=3
To appear as
http://domain.com/Controller/Action/1/2/3
You will need to use %{QUERY_STRING} to capture the query string data. Your .htaccess file will look like this:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^Action=Controller/Action&one=(\d+)&two=(\d+)&three=(\d+)
RewriteRule ^.+ /Controller/Action/%1/%2/%3 [R=301,L]
This will set up a permanent redirect to the new page. You can play around and test .htaccess rewrite rules here: htaccess.madewithlove.be
You can use this code in your DOCUMENT_ROOT/.htaccess file:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/?$ index.php?Action=$1/$2&one=$3&two=$4&three=$5 [L,QSA]
I know this question is asked by many users, also I gone through many questions to find the solutions as I am unable to understand the code used in htaccess file. So please kindly help me to solve this issue. I just want to convert a link like:
www.abc.com/project.php?proj-cat=some+project+name
to url like:
www.abc.com/project/some+project+name
OR to like:
www.abc.com/project/some-project-name/
I googled and found a website which creates a htaccess rule for you, using this site I got this:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule project/proj-cat/(.*)/ project.php?proj-cat=$1 [L]
but this doesn't redirect to the links above.
Please help me to find the solution for this and help me understand how it works. Thank You!
You can use this code in root .htaccess:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
# external redirect from actual URL to pretty one
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/+project\.php\?proj-cat=([^\s&]+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ project/%1? [R=302,L,NE]
# internal forward from pretty URL to actual one
RewriteRule ^project/([^/.]+)/?$ project.php?proj-cat=$1 [L,QSA,NC]

For a project I need to write a RewriteRule in a .htaccess file but unfortunately I have nearly no experience how to write such rules. What I want to do is rather simple: A complete redirect from one path to another with just one exception. Let me show you my try:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/success$
RewriteRule ^.*/wop_de/checkout/onepage.*$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/wop_de/onestepcheckout/ [R=301,L]
What I have thought: If there is no string like "/success" in the URL do a redirect from "/wop_de/checkout/onepage/" to "/wop_de/onestepcheckout/". Well, I guess I was thinking the wrong way as it doesn't work. Could you help me, please?
Also do you know a good tutorial to learn how to write such rules? Thank you in advance!
Use this rule:
RewriteRule ^wop_de/checkout/onepage.*$ /wop_de/onestepcheckout/ [R=301,L]
.htaccess is per directory directive and Apache strips the current directory path (leading slash) from RewriteRule URI pattern.
the good old mod_rewrite. I can't seem to get it right.
Typical scenario: A user types in "http://domain.com/page"
I want that the user is being redirected to "http://domain.com/page/page2"
My htaccess file looks as follows:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /var/www/
RewriteRule ^/page/$ page/page2
RewriteRule ^/bla/$ page/page2/bla
The first rewrite rule works, the second on the other hand doesn't seem to have any effect. Any idea? Maybe a better way to do this?
And another question:
As I said the first rewrite works just fine, but the url is not pretty. "http://domain.com/page" changes to "http://domain.com/page/page2". Is there a way to keep the typed in url but still forward the user to the actual link?
I presume the .htaccess is in your DocumentRoot.
How does your /bla containing look like? This should not rewrite the URL in the browser.
Use this:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^(/?)page/?$ $1page/page2 [L]
RewriteRule ^(/?)bla/?$ $1page/page2/bla [L]
