Our original urls began with a parameter and the following rewrite works to redirect them (thanks to Jon Lin).
However, the original parameter is being appended to redirect, so that
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^old-page$
RewriteRule ^$ /newpage [R=301,L]
ends up going to mydomain.com/newpage?old-page
Any idea how to fix? thanks again,
Geoff
Have it like this to strip off existing query string:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^old-page$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^$ /newpage? [R=301,L]
Take note of ? at the end of target URI, that is used to strip-off existing query string.

I need to handle one query parameter specifically.
The url can look like the following:
https://example.com/?app=egov&map=1337
https://example.com/?app=egov&map=1337&showoptions=true
https://example.com/?app=egov&map=1337&showoptions=true&anotherparam=helloWorld
The redirect should point to
https://example.com/contextName/resources/apps/egov/index.html?map=1337
https://example.com/contextName/resources/apps/egov/index.html?map=1337&showoptions=true
https://example.com/contextName/resources/apps/egov/index.html?map=1337&anotherparam=helloWorld
As you can see, the app-Parameter needs to be used as an URL-part; the others need to be used like traditional query-params.
I've figured out, how to implement the first part, where https://example.com/?app=egov points to https://example.com/contextName/resources/apps/egov/index.html using the following
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/$
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^app\=(.+)
RewriteRule ^/$ "/contextName/resources/apps/%1/index.html" [R,L,QSA]
but I'm struggeling how to realize the correct handling of the other params.
All these combination of query string can be handled by a single rule loke this:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^app=([\w-]+)(?:&(.*))?$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^$ contextName/resources/apps/%1/index.html?%2 [L]
RewriteCond matches app query parameter and captures it in %1 while rest of the query string after & is captured in %2.
With your shown samples, please try following htaccess Rules file. Please make sure to clear your browser cache before testing your URLs.
RewriteEngine ON

All of your URLs uri part is NULL, so rules are written based on that.
I need using this .htaccess file. It only changes the URL from www.mydomain.com/users/user?usernam=myname123&profile=myprofile123&data=mydata123 to www.example.com/users/myname123/myprofile123/mydata123 .
i use
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^user\.php$ - [L]
RewriteRule ^([0-9a-zA-Z\-_.]*)/?$ /users/user.php?username=$1&profile=$2&data=$3[L,QSA]
htaccess in users folder
not work
With your shown samples, could you please try following rules. This will take anything in REQUEST_URI starting.
RewriteEngine ON
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^$
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /([^/]*)/([^/]*)/([^/]*)/([^/]*)/?\s
RewriteRule ^(.*) /%1?username=%2&profile=%3&data=%4 [NE,L,NC]
OR(either use above or following one) in case you want to match users in URI then run rules then try following.
RewriteEngine ON
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^$
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /users/([^/]*)/([^/]*)/([^/]*)/?\s
RewriteRule ^(.*) /users?username=%1&profile=%2&data=%3 [NE,L,NC]
Explanation: Adding detailed explanation for above.
RewriteEngine ON: Enabling RewriteEngine here to enable mod rule writing.
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^$: Checking condition if query string is NULL then go further in rules.
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /users/([^/]*)/([^/]*)/([^/]*)/?\s: Matching regex in THE_REQUEST from /users to till spaces and capturing 3 groups values into back references to be used later.
RewriteRule ^(.*) /users?username=%1&profile=%2&data=%3 [NE,L,NC]: Using url rewrite to change URI to as per OP's request which has back references values in it.
I have a redirect problem where I would like to redirect a url with query parameters to another PDF entirely, e.g.:
Original URL:
https://www.foo.bar.com/~/bar.pdf?la
Redirect URL:
https://www.bar.foo.com/foo.pdf
Currently my rewrite rule is as shown below:
RewriteRule ^/~/bar.pdf?la https://www.bar.foo.com/foo.pdf [R=301,L,NC]
How can I write a 301 redirect that both accounts for the tilde and the query parameter?
Thanks in advance for your help!
First your rule RewriteRule ^/~/bar.pdf?la https://www.bar.foo.com/foo.pdf [R=301,L,NC] has several issues .
First , RewriteRule ^/ it is not applicable here so RewriteRule ^ is enough.
Second , you should escape ~ like this RewriteRule ^\~
and finally , dont't write query string with RewriteRule like bar.pdf?la because it is not a pert of URI.
The line should look like this :
RewriteRule ^\~/bar.pdf https://www.bar.foo.com/foo.pdf [R=301,L,NC]
But the query string may append to new target , to prevent that add ? at the end of target this :
RewriteRule ^\~/bar.pdf https://www.bar.foo.com/foo.pdf? [R=301,L,NC]
If you want to use query string value , you may add condition before that to utilize it:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(.*)$
you could change ^(.*)$ to whatever you want and you could use it in target like this example :
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(.*)$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.whatever.com/%1/$1 [R=301,L,NC]
So , %1 refer to this condition RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(.*)$ and $1 refer to this condition RewriteRule ^(.*)$ and so on.
You need to use RewriteCond
directive to check the url query string. You can not do that in RewriteRule . The querystring in your url is la .
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond ℅{QUERY_STRING} ^la$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^.*bar\.pdf$ /foo.pdf? [L,R=301]
I have hundreds of these old links I need to redirect.
Here is one example:
/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=433:seventh-character-code-categories-and-icd-10-cm&Itemid=101&showall=1
to
/seventh-character-code-categories-and-icd-10-cm
Essentially I need to remove the /index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=433: part.
I tried this but I am getting confused with the [0-9] and : parts, so the following does not work:
RewriteRule ^/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=[0-9]:(.*)$ /$1 [L,R=301]
Say you want to capture from after : to right before & in the query string you mentioned, then try this expression:
^[^\:]*\:([^\&]*)\&.*$
As #starkeen mentioned in comments, you got to check against the query string. This can be done using RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING}
So if index.php is in the root folder:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^\/index\.php$
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^[^\:]*\:([^\&]*)\&.*$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://example.com/%1 [R=301,L]
Here's another example. This one is for a sub folder:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^\/pages\/index\.php$
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^[^\:]*\:([^\&]*)\&.*$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /pages/%1? [R=301,L]
Also, notice the ? at the end of the url /pages/%1?, this prevents from re-attaching the query string.
Another thing, captured groups will be set to variables %{number} since set in the RewriteCond.
BTW, depending on your server's configuration, you may need to add the NE flag, like [NE,L,R=301] Plus test whether it is necessary to double escape the literal characters.
what is about direct approach. Skip all till semicolon, mach string till & and replace all with first much
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} [^:]+:([\w-]+[^&]).*
RewriteRule .*$ \/%1? [R=301,L]
</IfModule>
I'm looking for an Apache Rewrite Condition that fires if a certain URL parameter is not set and then rewrites the URL by adding this parameter.
So basically if my URL looks like http://www.heco.de/index.php?id=123&catId=456, I want it to redirect to http://www.heco.de/index.php?id=123&catId=456&cHasH=456
The first parameter is a static page ID, but the catId varies from a single digit up to 6 digits.
I tried to achieve this by adding this code snippet to my .htaccess:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} catId=([0-9]{1,6})
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !cHash=
RewriteRule ^(.*)/?id=123&catId=([0-9]{1,6})$ index.php?id=123&catId=$2&cHash=$2
#RewriteRule ^(.*)/?id=123&catId=([0-9]+)$ http://www.stackoverflow.com
Alas, it's not working. I tried testing this by uncommenting the last line, but no redirect takes place at all. Hence I would be really grateful for any insights, ideas or further advice...!
Thx in advance,
Martin
You can't match QUERY_STRING in RewriteRule.
You can use this rule:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !(?:^|&)cHash=[^&]+ [NC]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (?:^|&)catId=([0-9]{1,6}) [NC]
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ $0?cHash=%1 [L,QSA,NC]
