I'm new to mod_rewrite, so I know this is probably a simple fix. I want to rewrite www.abc.com to www.xyz.com ONLY. I only want to do this in firefox. I do not want www.abc.com/def to redirect to www.xyz.com. Currently, I have the following:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.abc.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} "firefox" [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.xyz.com [L,R=302]
I understand that the ^(.*)$ portion is what is allowing everything else to be redirected as well. What should I enter in there that will ONLY redirect www.abc.com?
Thank you!
Change the rule to
RewriteRule ^/?$ https://www.xyz.com [L,R=302]

I am using
RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} !^.*wordpress_logged_in.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^wp-admin/admin-ajax.php(.*)$ dl-file.php?file=$1 [QSA,L]
to protect worpdress files which are called with admin-ajax.php from not logged in users. But this breaks ajax for all visitors - so some things won't work for non registered users.
How could I instead just specify a rewriterule for a specific url, for instance this one:
RewriteRule ^wp-admin/admin-ajax.php?action=ajax_request&fn=download&id=(.*) [QSA,L]
id would be a number for a file.
is there a way to do this with htaccess?
I followed user hakre https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/37144/how-to-protect-uploads-if-user-is-not-logged-in using dl-file.php
Thank you!

You can add another RewriteCond based on %{QUERY_STRING} variable to target a specific URL:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (?:^|&)action=ajax_request&fn=download&id= [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} !^.*wordpress_logged_in.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^wp-admin/admin-ajax\.php$ dl-file.php?file=$1 [QSA,L]
I am trying to redirect all requests coming in to the web server as http://portal.company.com/legacy to http://portal.company.com/wps/portal/public/legacy/legacyportlet with the following rule, but it is not working as expected.
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^portal\.company\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/legacy$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /wps/portal/public/legacy/legacyportlet$1 [NC,L,PT]
I have also tried
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^portal\.company\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^/legacy /wps/portal/public/legacy/legacyportlet [NC,L,PT]
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
It doesn't look like your source or target URLs change in any way, so possibly you're better off using Apache's basic Redirect directive which just redirects one URL to another.
Use this rule:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^portal\.company\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^legacy/?$ /wps/portal/public/legacy/legacyportlet [NC,L]
Remember that in .htaccess RewriteRule doesn't match leading slash of URI.
I'm changing all my subdomains to a single domains.
However, in order no to lose all my SEO I need to do some 301 redirections. My problem is that I have about 10.000 subdomains (it's a website about cities and each city is a subdomain) so I need to make a generic rewrite rule in order to make the new URLs (otherwise my htaccess will be too big).
I tried doing it myself but for some reason, it's doing what it wants to (so I guess I'm doing something wrong). Here is my code:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(.*)\.domain\.com/b/^(.*)
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://domain.com/city/$1/b/$2 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(.*)\.domain\.com
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://domain.com/?multi_city=$1 [R=301,L]
This is what happens with these two rules.
city.domain.com --> domain.com/?multi_city=/
city.domain.com/b/place --> domain.com/?multi_city=/b/place
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance.
So, after many hours, I finally fixed it doing this:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(.+)\.mydomain\.(.*)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/b
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://mydomain.%2/city/%1/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(.+)\.mydomain\.(.*)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/event
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://mydomain.%2/city/%1/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(.+)\.mydomain\.com
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://mydomain.com/?multi_city=%1 [R=301,L]
This way I can redirect places and events first and if the URL is not in that format then it will go to the different format URL. It's probably not the most efficient solution but it works for me. Hope this helps to someone else.
I think the first RewriteCond it's wrong:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(.*)\.domain\.com/b/^(.*)
The '^' symbol says that the string start, it's not part of the group, so I think that you will try:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(.*)\.domain\.com/b/(.*)
Maybe, it will be better:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(.*)\.domain\.com/b/([a-zA-Z0-9\-]+)
I'm doing it without testing, if it doesn't work I will make tests later and I'll answer you.
I want to do the following with apache (mod rewrite).
if the user requests http://hostname.tld/index.php/folder/subfolder i want it to redirect (with a R=301) to http://hostname.tld/folder/subfolder.
if the user requests http://hostname.tld/folder/subfolder the request should internally be rewritten to index.php/folder/subfolder.
To prevent an endless redirect the first rule should check for %{THE_REQUEST}. The problem here is that I am unable to append "folder/subfolder" with a regex. How should I do this?
For the second rule I have this (and seems to work).
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} hostname.tld [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php [QSA,L]
The first one is still a problem.
I think the first one should be something like
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} (.*)index.php(.*) [NC]
RewriteRule /index.php/$ http://hostname.tld/$1 [R=301,QSA,L]
But that is not really it.
The first should be.
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^hostname\.tld$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} index\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^index.php/(.*)$ http://hostname.tld/$1 [R=301,L]
I also see that your second rule redirects http://hostname.tld/folder/subfolder to http://hostname.tld/index.php (not http://hostname.tld/index.php/folder/subfolder). But as long as that works it's fine, as this it also prevents the redirect loop.
But just in case, here is the solution to add the folder/subfolder part:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^hostname\.tld$ [NC]
RewriteCond $1 !^index\.php
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [QSA,L]
I am looking to map a secondary domain to a subfolder on my document root.
For example, if requests to the domain www.example.com map to my DocumentToot, then requests to www.exampletwo.com go to /sites/files/.
I am unable to accomplish a redirect from www.exampletwo.com/index.html to www.exampletwo.com/sites/files/index.html while making the URL still display www.exampletwo.com/index.html. Any ideas?
I believe you're looking for something like this:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?exampletwo\.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^/(.*) /sites/files/$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?example\.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://www.exampletwo.com/$1 [L,R]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?exampletwo\.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://www.exampletwo.com/sites/files/$1 [L,P]
The P flag uses the proxy module, therefore the url is not changed (no redirect) on the client.
