htaccess mod_rewrite about?subpage=mission - apache

I am trying to use mod_rewrite to clean up the $_GET[] info from the URL
Currently have this as my .htaccess
# BEGIN Rewrite
ErrorDocument 404 /404.php
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.php [NC,L]
# END Rewrite
I have and about.php page that has a few sub pages and with that .htaccess file it looks like
http://domain.com/about
to view the subpage "mission" It would look like
http://domain.com/about?subpage=mission
What is the best way to clean this URL up? I suck at the .htaccess stuff.

EDIT
Edited to show a generic rule:
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^GET\ /([^?]+)\?subpage=([^&\s]+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^.+$ /%1/%2? [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^(.+)/([^/]+)/?$ /$1.php?subpage=$2 [L]

How to manipulate the URL with .htaccess for certain links

How can I manipulate the url by using .htaccess to make the url below work and shorten the size?
I successfully removed the .php, .html extension from the url, but don't have a clue on how to manipulate the character positions and remove the query variable name.
Example:
www.website.com/blog?language=en-us
to:
www.website.com/en-us/blog
RewriteEngine On
DirectoryIndex index.php
ErrorDocument 404 /public_html/404.php
ErrorDocument 500 /public_html/500.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.php [NC,L]
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.html [NC,L]
With your shown samples, please try following htaccess rules file. Please make sure to clear your browser cache before testing your URLs.
RewriteEngine ON
##External redirect 301.
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/(blog)\?language=(\S+)\s [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%1/%2? [R=301,L]
##Internal rewrite to index.php file.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^/]*)/(.*)/?$ index.php?param1=$1&language=$2 [QSA,NC,L]

.htaccess to create SEO url not working

I have the file path: example.com/blog/ where blog is a directory. Blog gets a query string from the URL called URL and makes a dynamic page out of that information. So essentially it's something like this: example.com/blog?url=hello-world but i'd like to remove the ?url part and instead add a slash. So it should look something like this: example.com/blog/hello-world I've tried to accomplish this by putting the .htaccess file in the blog directory. This is my current .htaccess file, but it is not working:
.htaccess
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /stories/
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /\?url=([^&\s]+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1? [L,R=302]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/([^/]+)/?$ index.php?url=$1 [L,QSA]
Inside /blog there is a index.php file and that generates the dynamic page.
RewriteEngine On # Turn on the rewriting engine
RewriteRule ^blog/([A-Za-z0-9-]+)/?$ blog/index.php?url=$1 [NC,L]
RewriteRule ^blog/?$ blog/index.php [NC,L]
Try this one.
EDIT
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f
RewriteRule ^(blog)/(.*)$ blog/index.php?url=$1

Apache htaccess - change subdirectory

My file structure looks like this:
/
index.php
htaccess
cabinet
public
file.txt
index.php
I want to have a redirect from cabinet/file.txt to cabinet/public/file.txt,
and if cabinet/public/$filename does not exists then to redirect to cabinet/public/index.php instead.
How can I do this properly?
You can use a rewrite rule in Apache. Here is a good place to start if you are not familiar. What you want looks something like this:
RewriteEngine On # Turn on the rewriting engine
RewriteRule ^cabinet/file.txt cabinet/public/file.txt
ErrorDocument 404 cabinet/public/index.php
Keep in mind that the ErrorDocument will be used for all 404 or files not found.
You can use this .htaccess in /cabinet/ folder:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /cabinet/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/cabinet/public/$1 -f [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.+?)/?$ public/$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^((?!public/).*)$ public/index.php [L,NC]

htaccess issue causing internal server error too many redirects

so I am playing with .htaccess to have clean URLs in my codeigniter app.
in short, i am trying to:
1) remove index.php in urls (redirect permanent)
http://localhost/directory/index.php*
to
http://localhost/directory/*
http://my.domain.com/index.php*
to
http://my.domain.com/*
2) rewrite requests for certain controllers to index.php/[controller_name]
http://localhost/directory/controller1*
to
http://localhost/directory/index.php/controller1*
http://my.domain.com/controller2*
to
http://my.domain.com/index.php/controller2*
my htaccess file currently goes like this:
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine On
#RewriteBase /
# Redirect index.php
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^GET.*index\.php [NC]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} !/system/.*
RewriteRule ^(.*)index\.php((/)(.*))?$ /$1/$4 [R=301,L]
first issue:
this does not work for http://localhost/dir/index.php/controller1.
instead redirecting to http://localhost/dir/controller1, it redirects to http://localhost//controller1 ($1 return empty string?)
# Rewrite CI certain controllers
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} directory/(home|other_controller) [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)(home|other_controller)(.*)$ /$1index.php/$2$3 [NC,L]
second issue:
this does not work for http://localhost/dir/home gives internal server error (too many redirects).
but if I test added R=301 code, it successfully redirect to http://localhost/dir/index.php/home. but this is not my intention to redirect, I only need to rewrite it.
please advise.. :)
Try with this:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]
You can place this in the directory the bootstrap file (index.php) is in.
If you have FastCGI implementation, you need to add a question mark in the rewrite rule:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]

Remove .html from URLs with a redirect

We have a website, unfortunately all the URLs have the .html suffix, its a Magento installation, Magento allows you to change this on the CMS, but again, unfortunately all this URLs with .html suffix have a good ranking in Google. We need to redirect to non .html.
So, consider the following scenario, we are rebuilding this site from scratch, so we have the same urls on the new site but without the .html suffix.
Now is: www.example.de/cool-shoes.html
Will be: www.example.de/cool-shoes
So www.example.de/cool-shoes.html will not exist anymore, and I've been trying a redirect with the .htaccess with no luck.
I've tried so far:
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /.*\.html\ HTTP/
RewriteRule (.*)index\.html$ /$1 [R=301,L]
and:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.html
but it doesn't seem to work...any ideas?
Ok so, after some research, and failing to achieve this with a rewrite rule, the following line of code worked:
redirectMatch 301 ^(.*)\.html $1
This is quite usefull to remove any url extension and avoid broken links, hopefully helps someone in the future...
cheers!
This will rewrite the url like so http://example.com/page.html -> http://example.com/page
# Remove .html from url
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.html
Try adding the following to the .htaccess file in the root directory of your site redirect URLs with .html extension and remove it.
Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
DirectorySlash Off
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME}/ -d
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME}.html !-f
RewriteRule [^/]$ %{REQUEST_URI}/ [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
RewriteRule ^(.+)\.html$ /$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME}.html -f
RewriteRule [^/]$ %{REQUEST_URI}.html [QSA,L]
Here's the solution that worked for me.
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \.html [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)\.html$ /$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.html [L]
Follow the steps, and you'll be able to remove .html from url without modifying .htaccess file.
This should do the trick:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^(\w+)\.html$ /$1 [R=301,L]
Try this to putting in your .htaccess file
Redirect permanent www.mysite.de/cool-shoes.html
www.mysite.de/cool-shoes
this may be helpful to you
This is for URLs ending with .html /product/raspberrypi.html ---> /product/raspberrypi/ (/product/raspberrypi/index.php) the index.php is hidden. Took me awhile to figure this out. LOL...
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} \.html$
RewriteRule ^(.*)\.html$ $1 [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
You have to use 'REQUEST_URI' and add it before index redirect rules since it could be overridden by the application. Its important to know that its URI not a filename or directory we are trying to redirect, since the file names all have index.php in the root folders(Wordpress).
