This is my first post so excuse me if something it's wrong with my way of asking for help. I've been reading other posts related to my problem but none solved it.
My path:
http://example.com/m/page1
http://example.com/m/page2
...
And so on.
I want to change the /m/pageX to /m/#pageX without hardcoding the URL and without using any additional php scripts.
At the first sight, I've accomplished this task by writing the following .htaccess configuration file:
Options +FollowSymlinks -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^[dm]/(.+)$ /m/#$1 [R=302,NE,L,NC]
## hide .php extension
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/+common_([^.]+)\.php[\s?] [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1 [R=302,L,NE]
## To internally forward
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/common_$1.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.+?)/?$ common_$1.php [L]
Is my code the best solution or there is other way to approach my task ?
How can I redirect the /m/pageX to /d/#pageX ?
Thank you
The # sign is not supported in URLs.
This will rewrite /m/pageX to /d/pageX:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^m/(.*) /d/$1 [L,R=301]
This will rewrite /m/pageX to /d/pageX#example, but #example is fix:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^m/(.*) /d/$1#example [NE,L,R=301]
[NE] is necessary to keep the hash (#) sign.
This will rewrite /m/pageX to /d/#pageX:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^m/(.*) /d/#$1 [NE,L,R=301]
Try these rules in your root .htaccess (a level above /m/ and /d/):
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^d/(.+)$ /m/#$1 [NE,NC,L,R=302]
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ /#$1 [NE,L,R=302]
Make sure to remove any /d/.htaccess file.
If for some reason you want to do it from /d/.htaccess then use this rule in /d/.htaccess file:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ /m/#$1 [NE,NC,L,R=302]

I have a problem with a simple rewrite rule in htaccess ...
My htaccess like this :
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ /$1 [L,R=301]
RewriteRule ^company$ /company.php?lang=en [QSA]
RewriteRule ^company/about$ /article.php?lang=en [QSA]
In local, it works.
But online it doesn't work.
If I go to the URL "www....com/company/about", I have the company.php page ...
Can you explain to me what's my problem ?
Thanks a lot
Have it this way:
Options -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
## Unless directory, remove trailing slash
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^(.+)/+$
RewriteRule ^ %1 [R=301,NE,L]
RewriteRule ^company$ company.php?lang=en [L,NC,QSA]
RewriteRule ^company/about$ article.php?lang=en [L,QSA,NC]
Important change is disabling option MultiViews. Option MultiViews (see http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/content-negotiation.html) is used by Apache's content negotiation module that runs before mod_rewrite and makes Apache server match extensions of files. So if /file is the URL then Apache will serve /file.php (if that exists in your system).
I have also added L (last) and NC (ignore case) flags in your 2 rules.
I have a problem removing folders from an url. I want that google / old links aren't broken. The old webpage had several sections with a structure like this
example.com/news/items/entry1.html
example.com/news/items/entry2.html
example.com/blog/items/foo.html
The new page has the urls like this:
example.com/news/entry1
example.com/news/entry2
example.com/blog/foo
Removing html was rather straight forward
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
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 [QSA,L]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /([^.]+)\.html[\s?] [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%1 [R=302,L,NE]
</IfModule>
The part I'm struggling with is removing the 'items' part. The rules I found only worked for request path like 'example.com/items/subfolder1/...'
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
To remove /items/ from your URLs you can use the following in your .htaccess file:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^(.*)/items /$1 [L,R=301]
So for example, this will take the URL: http://example.com/news/items/entry1 and turn it into http://example.com/news/entry1
Make sure you clear your cache before testing this.
I was trying to rewrite a URL for making my site SEO friendly, but .htaccess rewrite not seems to work.
My URL is
www.tasteofkochi.com/dine-detail.php?a=150
I need this to look like
www.tasteofkochi.com/sometext/150
I did the simple formula but it's not reflecting, intact nothing happens at all. If I add some junk char in htaccess, site crashes, which means htaccess is working fine. Also I added a formula to remove .php extn, and that too works fine. Only issue is with this one. Can anyone please help me. I enable rewrite in httpd and allow all in directories, still not working.
Below is my .htacces
RewriteEngine on
Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
RewriteBase /
## hide .php extension
# To externally redirect
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\s([^.]+)\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1 [R,L,NC]
## To internally redirect
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule ^ %{REQUEST_URI}.php [L]
RewriteRule ^detail/([0-9]+)/?$ dine-detail.php?a=$1 [NC,L]
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php?p=$1 [L,QSA]
We can create pretty urls with .htaccess and php by mainly two files one is .htaccess and another index.php
Example
I am trying to change my url using htaccess but it doesn't seem to be working. I want http://example.com/blog_view?id=1 to be changed to http://example.com/blog-id/1/ but it isn't working. I have tried using this.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^blog-id/([^/]*)/$ /blog_view?id=$1 [L]
You might have to add a RewriteBase directive:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^blog-id/([^/]*)/$ /blog_view?id=$1 [L]
You can test your rules with this tool
You need one redirect and one rewrite rule (already existing):
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /blog_view\?id=([^\s&]+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /blog-id/%1? [R=302,L,NE]
RewriteRule ^blog-id/([^/]+)/?$ blog_view?id=$1 [L,QSA,NC]
Most are for redirections and removing file extensions or for dynamic urls.
The problem being I can't get a simple static url to rename
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^fileThathasalongname file.html
What I currently have 'mysite.co.uk/fileThathasalongname.html'
What I want is 'mysite.co.uk/file/' while file = file.html
using:
Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^FileIWantToChange.html FriendlyNamed.html
Using this gives me the error multiple Choices
+++++++++++++++++Edit+++++++++++++++++++++++++
Thought i'd add my final version for people to look at, it may help, the anwser below is correct.
Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
DirectorySlash Off
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME}/ -d
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME}.html !-f
RewriteRule [^/]$ %{REQUEST_URI}/ [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
RewriteRule ^(.+)\.html$ /$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^FriendlyNamed.html FileIWantToChange.html [L]
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME}.html -f
RewriteRule [^/]$ %{REQUEST_URI}.html [QSA,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.mysire.co.uk [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://mysite.co.uk/$1 [L,R=301]
all works a charm!
I see multiple issues going on. Firstly the regular expression is matched against the friendly URL the user types in. So you need to swap your friendly url and file path with each other. The friendly or "fake" name goes on the left while the url to redirect to silently goes on the right. Also make sure you've set the directory base to /. Finally it's good to add an [L] to enforce it to be the last rule in case anything in the same file tries to rewrite the path. Due note that other htaccess files lower down, depending on the files location, will also be checked even when enforcing the rule has the last rule. Also junk the options part completely. Give this a try:
RewriteBase /
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^FriendlyNamed.html FileIWantToChange.html [L]
RewriteRule ^fileThathasalongname.html file.html
