I have a wordpress application thats currently the only application on the domain.
Now in this application, I've just created a /presentations folder...
How can I present anything stored in just this /presentations folder from getting redirected...
Thank you
WordPress's .htaccess file only redirects if a file matching the request URI can't be found. Files in your /presentations folder should be unaffected.
If you're redirecting in some other way than the default WordPress .htaccess rules, we'll need to see the config for that.

I am able to reach my website at a certain ip address and I am going to implement a REST service. I have some PHP files that perform actions on a database and I am calling them from the client. I am using linux ubuntu as server and so far I can do this:
http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/api/create/?id=someId&val=someValue
http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/api/delete/?id=someId
I can do the above because inside /var/www/html I have a folder called api that contains another folder called create. The create cointains the file index.php so that I can omit it and execute the URL you can see above.
This works fine but I don't think this is the proper way to do it. I am new with this so I don't know what to do. After some researches I have found that my goal probably be achieved using an .htaccess file use url rewriting but I am not sure.
How can I do this? Do I have to place all the php files in a single folder and then use an htaccess file? (^)
(^) To be more precise: instead of having this
http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/api/create/index.php?id=someId&val=someValue
http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/api/delete/index.php?id=someId
//and so on with other actions...
Do I have to create a folder like
http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/files/
containing all my php files (create.php, delete.php, view.php...) and the use an htaccess to redirect?
I see that websites offer their api using www.domain.com/api/something/?data=Value or www.domain.com/api/something/dataAbout/. Are they doing what I have said about the .htaccess? I hope I have well explained my problem.
htaccess:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^api/([\w-]+)/?$ files/$1.php [L,NC]
This is inside /var/www/html and I have api inside /home/username/api .
Thanks Emma
Do it like this:
Create php files in a folder files/ subdirectory as create.php, delete.php, view.php etc (by renaming each individual index.php file, you mentioned).
Move away api directory somewhere outside site root.
Once that is done use following .htaccess file in /var/www/html/:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^api/([\w-]+)/?$ files/$1.php [L,NC]
Then use new URLs as:
http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/api/create?id=someId&val=someValue
http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/api/delete?id=someId
In first, this is not the right way to create a RESTFUL API. My suggestion is to you read a best practices article.
You shouldn't create a CREATE and DELETE folder. You should use HTTP actions.
To create a new record you should use POST. In example, POST /user and in the body you pass the user's information.
In another example, you could use the same route by using different HTTP methods: DELETE /user/1 to delete a user and PATCH /user/1 to edit some already existent user's information.
Hope it's help you.
I wanna set up an download page.
I need to access those pages only through a login page and stop all the direct access to the download page path and also its files and again if anyone tries to access those pages directly then it should automatically redirect to login page itself or else at least with a 404 error.
How can I do all these in .htaccess file. It will be very much helpful in developing my website.
Thanks in advance
Assuming that your all of your downloads are inside of a downloads directory, something like this should do the trick.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^https?://(?:www\.)?your.site.*
RewriteRule ^downloads\/?.* http://your.site/login [R=302,L]
Alternatively (and ideally) you should instead keep the pages outside of the site's root directory and download them through a proxy page.
Goal:
Redirect from http://example.com/library/page123.htm
to https://example.com/library/folder/page123.htm
I have found plenty of example on how to perform redirects to ssl and how to add folders, but am struggling to execute these together. Additionally, there are multiple pages under the "library" folder of the old url structure.
Appreciate any help!
I am trying to access rest API for Guest User through
http://localhost/b_marketing/api/rest/products, but the page redirects to 404 page. I have checked retrive catalog products in ACL attributes RULES, REST - attributes and REST - ROLES, correctly. It also works correctly on my other project by using these all configurations.
There is one thing I need to mention here that my project works only when I use http://localhost/b_marketing/index.php , despite of setting up the htaccess rewrites and setting rewrite from admin panel. My apache rewrites are also set.
When I use http://localhost/b_marketing/api/?wsdl it works and some xml returns.
But I cannot use http://localhost/b_marketing/api/rest/products
The Response Header is always 404.
I also cannot access REST API using http://localhost/b_marketing/index.php/api/rest/products as well.
Make sure you have rewrite rule in .htaccess.
Go to magento root folder, in your case it is b_marketing
Open .htaccess file in any editor
Locate rewrite rule for api
If you don't have .htaccess file in place, you may consider to copy fron original
Magento packagem
If you run nginx:
.htaccess is not supported. Edit the nginx configuration and add the line:
location /api {
rewrite ^/api/rest /api.php?type=rest last;
}
I read that that line sometimes is already there however with the the word break instead of last. Thats wrong, change it to last.
Make sure to use -MultiViews. As the api.php and /api path have the same name (without extension), Apache might resolve api automatically to api.php and cause trouble.
hi i want redirect my directory to new address and remove .html ext from end
example:
http://www.mysite.com/viewdownload/11-e/652-elena-2010.html
redirect to
http://www.mysite.com/download/viewdownload/11-e/652-elena-2010
or
http://www.mysite.com/viewdownload/9-b/1281-birdsong-2012.html
redirect to
http://www.mysite.com/download/viewdownload/9-b/1281-birdsong-2012
Assuming mod_rewrite is installed, just use URL rewriting in your .htaccess files. You can use URL rewriting to redirect users as well as doing an internal transfer.
A good reference is here: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mod_rewrite.html
Note that if there is any custom logic to mapping your old URIs to your new ones you might want to rewrite the old URIs to a PHP script which then returns the needed file.
