Apache .htaccess: How to remove question mark from URL if not `?id=(.*)`? - apache

How to make .htaccess to remove question mark from URL if not ?id=(.*)?
# Rewrite for ?id=(.*)
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^id=(.*)$
RewriteRule .*$ %{REQUEST_URI}%1? [R=301,L]
# It does not work out on this way
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !=""
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !^id=.*
RewriteRule .*$ %{REQUEST_URI}%1? [R=301,L]

This would be the right rule:
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]+\ /([^?#\ ]*)\?[^\ ]*\ HTTP/ [NC]
RewriteCond !{QUERY_STRING} id
RewriteRule .*$ %{REQUEST_URI}? [R=301,L]
Update:
# Query rewrite exceptions
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !callback=.*

Does this work?
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^.+$
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !^id=
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1?%1 [R=301,L]
Tip: during your testings, use 302 redirections instead of 301, as 301 redirections are stored by browsers. You can finally switch to classic 301 when you are done testing.

.htaccess force to SSL and remove filename extensions

I am trying to rewrite my URL at the moment using .htaccess basically I want to force all connections to https:// and also remove any trailing .html extensions.
Here is what I have so far,
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.%{HTTP_HOST}$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.html [NC,L]
This forces the user to use https but it does not remove the .html from the URL where am I going wrong?
You need an additional rule to strip off .html from URLs. Moreover you can combine that rule and www and https rules into one to avoid mumtiple 301 redirects:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\. [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \.html[\s?] [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?:www\.)?(.+)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*?)(?:\.html)?$ https://%1/$1 [R=301,L,NC,NE]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.+?)/?$ $1.html [L]

htaccess mod_rewrite - Trailing Slash and loop of redirects

Here is my htaccess code:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^s/(.*)/(.*) /index.php?search=$1&category=$2 [L,QSA]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^search=([A-Za-z0-9\+]+)$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /s/%1/? [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^search=([A-Za-z0-9\+]+)&category=([A-Za-z0-9\+]+)$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /s/%1/%2/? [R=301,L]
I need to make a rewrite rule like this:
http://mywebsite.com/s/query+term => http://mywebsite.com/?search=query+term
OR if there is a category
http://mywebsite.com/s/query+term/Category => http://mywebsite.com/?search=query+term&category=Category
I need also to redirect all the old urls to the new one.
With this rules all that I can obtain is to have the search term and category name joined togheter. In a nutshell it is as if I had always:
http://mywebsite.com/?search=query+term/Category
If I remove all the conditions (RewriteCond), leaving only the rewrite rule with the addition of a trailing slash:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^s/(.*)/(.*)/ /index.php?search=$1&category=$2 [L,QSA]
Reaching the url of my interest in a direct way, the whole thing works. But I will not have the redirect..
So I have tried to set a rule like this:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^s/(.*)/(.*)/ /index.php?search=$1&category=$2 [L,QSA]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^search=([A-Za-z0-9\+]+)$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /s/%1/? [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^search=([A-Za-z0-9\+]+)&category=([A-Za-z0-9\+]+)$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /s/%1/%2/? [R=301,L]
But with this rule I get just a loop of redirects.
You can use the following rules :
RewriteEngine on
#1--Redirect from "?search=foobar&cat=cat" to "/s/foobar/cat" --#
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /\?search=([^&]+)&cat=([^\s]+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /s/%1/%/%2? [NC,L,R]
#2--Redirect from "/?search=foobar" to "/s/foobar" --#
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /\?search=([^/\s]+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /s/%1? [NC,L,R]
#1--Rewrite "s/foobar/cat" to "/?search=foobar&cat=cat"--#
RewriteRule ^s/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/?$ /?search=$1&$category=$2 [NC,L]
#2--Rewrite "s/foobar" to "/?search=foobar"--#
RewriteRule ^s/([^/]+)/?$ /?search=$1 [NC,L]

Apache .hatccess rewrites not working for legacy URLS

I'm trying to rewrite some legacy Joomla URLs on a site that's now using ExpressionEngine as its CMS but they're not working.
The ExpressionEngine URL rewrites, i.e. removing index.php from the URL work fine though.
This is what I've got:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
# This is the one that's not working
RewriteRule /index.php?option=com_chronocontact&Itemid=54 /contact/ [R=301,L]
# Force www
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\..+$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} (.+)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.%1/$1 [R=301,L]
# Redirect index.php Requests
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[^/]*/index\.php [NC]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^GET
RewriteRule ^index\.php(.+) $1 [R=301,L]
# Standard ExpressionEngine Rewrite
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(gclid=.*)
RewriteRule ^(.+) /index.php?/ [L,PT]
RewriteCond $1 !\.(css|js|gif|jpe?g|png) [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond $1 !^(assets|css|images|tinymce|js|min|cms|themes|index\.php|admin\.php|favicon\.ico|index\.php|path\.php|php\.ini) [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.+) /index.php?/ [L]
</IfModule>
Can anyone spot what I'm doing wrong?
The first thing is the stray RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on that you have at the top. It looks like it belongs to the rule under it, as in:
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\..+$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} (.+)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.%1/$1 [R=301,L]
As far as the rule that you have commented that doesn't work, the ? is a reserved character for regular expressions, and your pattern actually says that the second p in /index.php is "optional". Additionally, you can't match against the query string in a rewrite rule, you need to use a rewrite condition and match against the %{QUERY_STRING} variable:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^option=com_chronocontact&Itemid=54$
RewriteRule ^(index.php)?$ /contact/? [R=301,L]
is probably more along the lines of what you're looking for.

Redirect not working for complex rewrite rules (.htaccess)

I'm trying to make a redirect from a non-www version of the link to the www one. Its working fine for something like http://mywebsite.com but it fails for a request like http://mywebsite.com/artists/metallica/ or even a complex one. The whole .htaccess file is bellow. Any clues?
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(.*).html
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(.*)/$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://mywebsite.com/$1/ [L,R=301]
RewriteRule ^artists/([^/-]+)-p([^/]+)/$ /artists.php?l=$1&p=$2 [QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^artists/([^/]+)/$ /artists.php?l=$1 [QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^submit/$ /submit.php [QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^users/$ /users.php [QSA,L]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^.*/index.php
RewriteRule ^(.*)index.php$ http://www.mywebsite.com/$1 [R=301,L]
Try this rule:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.
RewriteCond %{HTTPS}s ^on(s)|
RewriteRule ^ http%1://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
But make sure that you put this rule in front of those rules that just do an internal rewrite. Otherwise an already internally rewritten rule might get redirected externally.

.htaccess rewrite without www AND redirect to subdirectory

I'd like to redirect
www.example.com/* to example.com/*
And at the same time redirect
example.com/* to example.com/forum/*
But I also have /wiki/ and /blog/ and /style/, so I don't want to redirect
example.com/style/* to example.com/forum/style/*
This is what I have at the moment, which is not working quite correctly:
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://example.com/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/forum/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ forum/$1 [R=301,L]
Clarification: my question can be asked in a simpler way.
I'd like to redirect an empty REQUEST_URI or /, or a non-existent file only if it is in the root directory to /forum/.
Try this:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example\.com
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://example.com/$1 [R=301,QSA,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(wiki|blog|style|forum)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.example.com/forum/$1 [R=301,QSA,L]
I would use these rules:
# redirect www.example.com to example.com
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.example\.com$
RewriteRule ^ http://example.com%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
# prefix everything but /forum/, /wiki/, /blog/, /style/ with /forum/ and rediret to it
RewriteRule !^(forum|wiki|blog|style)/ /forum%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
The second rule could additionally be replaced by this one to check the existence of the first path segment for every request.
# check if first segment of requested URI path is either missing
RewriteCond $0 ^$ [OR]
# or cannot be mapped to an existing directory
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}$0/ !-d
RewriteRule ^[^/]* /forum%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
I'd say this should work.
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^forum/(.*)$ forum/$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^wiki/(.*)$ wiki/$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^blog/(.*)$ blog/$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^style/(.*)$ style/$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ forum/$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.example\.com$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://example.com/$1
I don't have the answer for everything but for your www/no www problem you could try this :
# Enforce www
# If you have subdomains, you can add them to
# the list using the "|" (OR) regex operator
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^(www|subdomain) [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /exemple/$1 [L,R=301]
# Enforce NO www
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://exemple.com/$1 [L,R=301]
