I need to rewrite all URLs from one folder to another folder, but only if they are doing a request from a certain domain.
So:
www.example.com/blog/path/to/article
needs to go to:
www.example.com/new-blog/path/to/article
But it needs to be conditional to example.com, because if the request comes through for, say:
www.otherdomain.com/blog/path/to/article
it does not need to redirect to the new folder.
Both the folders "blog" and "new-blog" contain two separate Wordpress installs. This is the code I currently have in the root public folder, and what does not work:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.example\.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^blog(.*) /new-blog$1 [L,R]
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
I was able to get it working with this directive, and actually placed inside the /blog folder:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^new\.example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule (.*) http://new.example.com/our-happy-place/$1 [L,R]

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]
Essentially, I need to edit the .htaccess file to develop a way to hide folder structure after /file. For example, if I have this URL:
https://www.example.com/file/page/work/assignments.php?
I should only see https://www.example.com/file/assignments.php?
How can this be accomplished?
So far I have tried the following, but it does hide all folders after first:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?domain\.com$
RewriteRule !^subfolder/ /subfolder%{REQUEST_URI} [L]
You can do something like the following to "hide" page/work after the /file/ directory and before the last path segment.
This needs to go in the root .htaccess file.
RewriteEngine On
# Redirect "/folder/page/work/<file>" to "/folder/<file>"
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
RewriteRule ^(folder)/page/work/([^/]+)$ /$1/$2 [R=302,L]
# Rewrite "/folder/<file>" back to "/folder/page/work/<file>" (if it exists)
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/$1/page/work/$2 -f
RewriteRule ^(folder)/([^/]+)$ $1/page/work/$2 [L]
The will externally redirect a request for /folder/page/work/assignments.php?something to /folder/assignments.php?something. And internally rewrite the request back again.
NB: You should already be linking to /folder/<file> internally. The initial redirect to remove page/work is just for SEO if you are changing an existing URL structure. Otherwise, this is not strictly necessary.
A look at your existing rule...
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?domain\.com$
RewriteRule !^subfolder/ /subfolder%{REQUEST_URI} [L]
This would seem to be unrelated to what you are trying to achieve. It would internally rewrite a request for /<anything> to /subfolder/<anything>, essentially "hiding" /subfolder.
There is no need to check the requested Host header unless you are accepting requests to multiple domains and this is specific to just one of those domains. (You've made no mention of this in your question.)
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'm having trouble writing redirect rules in my website's htaccess file.
Basically, i want to write two rules:
1 - When i write the base URL, like http://www.example.com, i want it to automatically redirect the user to http://www.example.com/someDirectory.
2 - However, when i write http://www.example.com/Admin, i want it to redirect the user to http://www.example.com/Admin.
Here's what i've managed to do so far:
# This allows you to redirect index.html to a specific subfolder
Redirect http://www.example.pt http://www.example.pt/MainFolder
# This allows you to redirect index.html to a specific subfolder
Redirect http://www.example.pt/Admin http://www.example.pt/Admin
However this does not work... Any idea on how to do this?
Try it like this,
When there is no request for specific file or directory it will redirect you to your directory mention in rule and for the rest it will work without any rule.
Please check.
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^$
RewriteRule ^ %{HTTP_HOST}/someDirectory [R,L]
After a long research i was able to find a solution to my problem. I'll leave it here, in case anyone's having the same problem:
#Rewrite everything to subfolder
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/MainFolder
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/Admin
Rewriterule ^(.*)$ MainFolder/$1 [L]
So we have a system in place for dynamic content for clients.
Essentially they have their own domain. But we also store the content on our domain for deployment.
An example:
Our domain: http://domain_one.com/client_domain/home.php
Their domain: http://client_domain.com/home.php
We need to redirect to the client domain which we can place into the htaccess with php.
What we want to do is also redirect the query string. When we add the query string, it redirects the client_domain/home.php to the client_domain.com
Our rewrite url as follows:
RewriteRule !^(template_files)($!|/) http://".$domain."/ [R=301,L]
This file gets created dynamically via php for those asking about the ".$domain." bit.
You can use this rule:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/(template_files|web_images)/ [NC]
RewriteRule ^[^/]+/(.*)$ http://domain.com/$1 [R=301,NC,L]
