I have used this rule in categories:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9-/]+)$ categories.php?url=$1
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9-/]+)/$ categories.php?url=$1
I want to hide php extension already for static files like xxx.php. Im using this rule:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php
This rule not working and xxx.php goes to categories.php page. What rule may I use for static pages? may I use any "folder/(.*)$ $1.php" ?
Should work fine, if you make sure to put the second set of rules first. Remember, the rules are executed in order. So, in the order you have the rules in your post, a request to xxx will be rewritten as categories.php?url=xxx before the second rule ever sees the request... so it never triggers.

I am trying to apply logic where i have to capture unique identifier passed to the URL
http://abzc.com/1235a -> http://abzc.com/content/abc.htm/1235a.htm
The logic that i applied is as below and it works fine-
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(.htm)
RewriteRule ^/([a-zA-Z0-9]{5})$ /content/abc.htm/$1.htm [R=301,L]
there could be situation where a user navigates to
http://abzc.com/content/ars.htm/1235a after the initial landing page so i would need to append .htm again to this URL
tried below logic but it fails totally -
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^\/*.html/(.*)$
RewriteRule .html/([a-zA-Z0-9]{5})$ /.html? [L,R=301]
Also I need to achieve
http://abzc.com -> http://xayz.com (i.e. no unique id passed as paramater to abzc.com)
but not sure how to capture if say $1 is null or something like that to handle this one.
Your help is appreciated!
I am using 2 Domains like http://doma.in and http://domain.com
The shortning URL calls only generated URL's from my Script. All other calls from the shortning URL should be forwarded to the Main Domain. Thats why I have this small mod_rewrite Rule.
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^doma.in [NC]
RewriteRule ^/?$ http://www.domain.com/$1 [R=301,L]
The Question
I want to disallow calling subfolders from the shortning URL. Because the shortning URL can also generate Custom URLs like
http://www.nokia.com -> http://doma.in/nokia
If I would have a subfolder called "nokia" than it will not be forwarded to the target. Instead of to forward it is calling the subfolder.
To forward URLs over mod_rewrite is this Rule used.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-x
RewriteRule ^(.*) /redirect.php?id=$1 [L]
Your question is a little unclear.
If you want the redirect to execute for /nokia even if you have a directory called /nokia, you need to remove the line:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
What that condition says is "If the file path of the request is an existing directory, do not continue."
Mod Rewrite noob so pardon my ignorance but all I am trying to do is a simple query string removal
from: http://yourwebsite.com/x?section=y
to: http://yourwebsite.com/x/y
I am adding my mod rewrite rules in my .htaccess like this:
ErrorDocument 404 /404
Options +MultiViews
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^section=(.*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /$1/%1? [R=301,L,NE]
The problem is that on visiting:
http://yourwebsite.com/x?section=y
My rule writes it back as:
http://yourwebsite.com/x.php/y
That .php in the pretty url is pretty darn ugly and I am struggling to get rid of it.
What is wrong in my mod rewrite rule?
Most likely you are looking for something like this:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.+)\/(.+)$ /$1.php?section=$2 [L]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^section=(.*)$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /$1/%1 [R=301,L,NE]
It makes two rewrites:
a request x/y is internally rewritten to x.php?section=y
a request to x?section=y is redirected to x/y
Note that one is an internal rewrite, whilst the other redirects the browser to show a less 'ugly' url.
One hint: in case you can use the logging feature of apaches rewriting module (RewriteLog and RewriteLogLevel) this will offer you a wealth of detailed information on what is actually going on inside the rewrite process.
What I'm trying to do:
I need to redirect a request to a file to another domain if the file not exists. For example:
http://www.mydomain.com/js/foo.js
redirects to (if not exists)
http://www.myanotherdomain.com/js/foo.js
What I do:
I wrote the next lines at the end the htaccess, but they redirect ALL!
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.myanotherdomain.com/$1 [L,NC]
Before these lines, I have a lot of lines like this (I'm using MVC (Model, View,Controller)):
RewriteRule ^car/brand/?$ ?controller=Car&action=viewBrand [L,NC]
What happens:
It works wells with non existing files, but seems to be imcompatible with the MVC rules. These rules have to match and then stop evaluating rules because de "L" flag. But it seems to continue evaluation of the rules and finally evaluates the redirect rule. The result is this:
http://www.mydomain.com/car/brand/
goes to
http://www.myanotherdomain.com/?controller=Car&action=viewBrand
Please can anyone help me?
Thank you very much,
Jonathan
Try this:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILE} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.myanotherdomain.com/$1 [QSA,R,L]
See also: mod rewrite directory if file/folder not found
Try placing these rules after your MVC rules:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)\.(js|png|jpe?g|gif|css|html?)$ http://www.myanotherdomain.com/$1.$2 [L,R,NC]
If you want all requests, and not just static content like scripts and images then change the RewriteRule line to:
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.myanotherdomain.com/$1 [L,R,NC]
Let's say I want to support urls like twitter where:
twitter.com/username redirects to twitter.com/user_name.php?user=username
I have the following
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ user_name.php?user=$1
And that works fine. But the problem is now that everything, including twitter.com/index.php will of course redirect to user_name.php
How can I either create exceptions or precedence so that "real files" don't get rewritten? I tried adding an explicit rule for index.php before and after that one, but it doesn't seem to take effect.
You need to add RewriteCond for this
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !-f [OR] # for existing files
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !-d # for existing directories
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ user_name.php?user=$1
