I have a site built for a client located on my server (ie http://www.myserver.com/clientsite). Can I disguise the URL by modifying the .htaccess file on my client's host (http://www.clientsite.com) to read as his domain, but display my content and keep the subdirectories in tact?
So: http://www.myserver.com/clientsite would read http://www.clientsite.com
and http://www.myserver.com/clientsite/about would read http://www.clientsite.com/about
I tried the following, but it was directing me to a 404 error.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^clientsite.com
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://www.myserver.com/clientsite/$1 [P]
Try this:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?clientsite.com
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://www.myserver.com/clientsite/$1 [P]
Since you mentioned that your client's site is http://www.clientsite.com and Rewrite condition was applied only to clientsite.com , I changed it to support both with and without www.
If it doesn't work, put your rewrite log and I'll check that.

I have following folder structure in apache server.
Public_html
-->admin
--->admin_login.php
-->website
--->index.php
since the index.php inside the website folder,
i have given following code in .htaccess
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/website/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /website/$1 [L,NC]
so that the when the user enter root url , it will appear "www.myurl.com" instead of "www.myurl.com/website/"
but the issue is, i could not be able to access admin_login.php.
is there anyway to modify .htaccess, to come website/index.php in main url and able to access admin_login.php(both)?
Thanks in Advance
You need to add an exception to existing rule like this:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(website|admin)/ [NC]
RewriteRule .* website/$0 [L]
Negative condition %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(website|admin)/ will match every URI except URIs that start with /website/ or /admin/. This will allow you to directly open www.myurl.com/admin/admin_login.php.
With your shown samples and attempts please try following .htaccess rules file. Please make sure to clear your browser cache before testing your URLs.
RewriteEngine ON
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
RewriteRule ^index\.php/?$ website/index.php [QSA,NC,L]
I have this apache rule in my .htaccess file:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^testURL.localhost.local
RewriteRule ^index.php$ /_testURL/index.php [L]
How would I write this so that testURL2.localhost.local or any other subdomain would be rewritten to the corresponding directories?
For instance testURL2.localhost.local would be rewritten to _testURL2/index.php etc
I already tried the option below but I didn't get the intended result:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^testURL
RewriteRule ^cms.php$ /_%1/cms.php [L]
With your shown samples, attempts; please try following htaccess rules file. I have posted 2 sets of htaccess rules file here, you have to use ONLY one set at a time.
1st solution: This is specifically for host testURL.localhost.local and will look for either index.php OR cms.php only in UI.
RewriteEngine ON
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?:www\.)?(testURL)\.localhost\.local$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^((?:index|cms)\.php)$ _%1/$1 [NC,L]
2nd solution: A Generic solution, where it will look for anyvalue.localhost.local and it will add anyvalue in path while rewriting, also it will look for any php files in uri.
RewriteEngine ON
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?:www\.)?([^.]*)\.localhost\.local$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^([^.]*\.php)$ _%1/$1 [NC,L]
NOTE1: Also please make sure to clear your browser cache before testing your URLs.
NOTE2: Please keep these rules at the top of your htaccess rules file.
NOTE3: I am also additionally/optimally matching www. in host in case you don't want it you could remove it (?:www\.)? part in condition.
I'm trying to rewrite URLs from old.domain.tld/project to domain.tld/subfolder/project using .htaccess in the project directory on the old server. I think I need to check for the host name so the rule only applies to the old server, even if the .htaccess file is also put on the new server.
I've tried the following .htaccess file:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^old\.domain\.tld$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://domain.tld/subfolder/project/$1 [R=301,L]
This works fine for URLs like https://old.domain.tld/project/index.php?p=q (redirects to https://domain.tld/subfolder/project/index.php?p=q) but not for the URL without the trailing slash—https://old.domain.tld/project ends up being redirected to https://domain.tld. Very odd! How do I make this work for both types of URL?
I tried a rather different method to make this a generic redirect, that could be included even if the folder name wasn't project, but this has the same problem:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^old\.domain\.tld$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^(.*)$
RewriteRule . https://domain.tld/subfolder/%1 [R=301,L]
In a server-wide configuration, a slash is appended to all requests for index files, e.g. old.domain.tld/project is redirected to old.domain.tld/project/. Could this be causing a problem?
I am trying to redirect from
http://www.example.com:81/my/api/search?query=test
to
http://www.example.com:81/my/php/api.php?query=test
using
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^query=(.*)$
RewriteRule ^api/search(.*)$ /php/api.php?%1 [L]
However, it doesn't work for me. Additionaly for testing htaccess rules I use http://htaccess.madewithlove.be/.
Possibly even better would be to check if request starts from ^api and it's GET type (I guess using RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD}) then redirect to /my/php/api.php?[query params here]
Anyone can point me into right direction?
If your .htaccess is located in /my/ directory then you can use:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /my/
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^query=.
RewriteRule ^api/search/?$ php/api.php [L]
QUERY_STRING will be automatically carried over to target URL.
To change the URL /mobiles.php?id=5 to /mobiles/5
The content of .htaccess file is as follows:
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule /mobiles/$1 ^/mobiles.php?id=([0-9]+)$
But still it is showing /mobiles.php?id=5 in the address bar. Please help. Is there anything else needs to be added in the .htaccess file?
Note:
mod_rewrite module is enabled
I have restarted Apache server after making changes to the .htaccess
file
.htaccess file is in htdocs folder of Apache.
I am using Windows + PHP + Apache + MySQL
This works for me:
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^mobiles/([0-9]+)$ mobiles.php?id=$1&rew [L]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^id=([0-9]+)$
RewriteRule ^mobiles.php$ /mobiles/%1? [R,L]
If you see this line:
RewriteRule ^mobiles/([0-9]+)$ mobiles.php?id=$1&rew [L]
I have added rew variable in the query string to prevent Apache to fall in an infinite loop
When Apache execute this line:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^id=([0-9]+)$
Is to make sure that url has not been rewritten for Apache
If your only concern is that the old url stays in the address bar, and you want this not to happen, try adding an [R] at the end.
RewriteRule ^/mobiles.php?id=([0-9]+)$ /mobiles/$1 [R]
Did you actually see the correct page?
By the way, the rewrite rules generally go the other way. I would be expecting to see something like:
RewriteRule ^/mobiles/([0-9]+)$ /mobiles.php?id=$1
Is your concern one of making sure a URL with query parameters does not show up in the address bar?
If I understand correctly, you want
Internally redirect /mobiles/5 to /mobiles.php?id=5
Also redirect the browser TO /mobiles/5 if a user navigates to /mobiles.php?id=5
For this you need 2 rules one to internally rewrite the URL for 1st case and 2nd for browser redirection.
You can do it like this:
RewriteEngine on
# for internal rewrite
RewriteRule ^/?mobiles/([0-9]+)/?$ /mobiles.php?id=$1 [L]
# for browser redirect
RewriteRule ^/?mobiles\.php\?id=([0-9]+)$ /mobiles/$1/ [R,L]
You are doing the opposite, should be:
RewriteRule ^/something/mobiles/([0-9]+)$ /something/mobiles.php?id=$1
