I need to remove some specific text (and all characters after it from a url) - have tried several options, but I can't get any of them to work, a sample url is:
/yacht-sales/yacht/eclipse1?title=http://www.oceanindependence.com/yacht-sales/yacht/daydream&submit=
It's everything from the ?title= - that needs to be removed, so the final url would be:
/yacht-sales/yacht/eclipse1
there is another site on the same server that uses ? in it's url's, so removing everything from the ? onwards did cause problems when I tried it, and I did also try:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^?title=http$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %{REQUEST_URI}? [R=301,L,NE]
But this didn't work, sorry am not really good at things like this, if anyone can help at all?
Cheers
%{QUERY_STRING} doesn't contain first ? and since its not ending with http hence don't put $ there.
You can use this rule:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (^|&)title=http.+ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %{REQUEST_URI}? [R=301,L,NE]

My website uses a comma to separate some coordinates in a parameter, like ?coords=38.88,-77.03. I'm now finding issues as , is a url reserved character. The issue seems limited to when the links are shared with Facebook and Facebook changing it to ?coords=38.88%2C-77.03.
Long term I'd like to fix it but I need to make a temporary fix for existing links that have been shared. If people were to click the link from Facebook I'd like an .htaccess rule to change it to using the comma.
I already have a similar rule for when there's a space after the comma:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (.*coords=-?\d{1,2}(?:\.\d+)?),(?:\s+|\%20|\+)(-?\d{1,3}(?:\.\d+)?,?.*) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %{REQUEST_URI}?%1,%2 [L,NE,R=301]
I tried changing it to:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (.*coords=-?\d{1,2}(?:\.\d+)?)(,|\%2C)(?:\s+|\%20|\+)(-?\d{1,3}(?:\.\d+)?,?.*) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %{REQUEST_URI}?%1,%3 [L,NE,R=301]
I cleared my cache and even tried changing the coordinate numbers to new ones, but I can't get it to redirect. What am I doing wrong and how can I fix it?
Your earlier non-capture group is not optional thus it is trying to match 1+ spaces after matching %2C and failing. You may use this rule:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (.*coords=-?\d{1,2}(?:\.\d+)?)(?:[+\s]+|\%2C|\%20)+(-?\d{1,3}(?:\.\d+)?,?.*) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %{REQUEST_URI}?%1,%2 [L,NE,R=301]
setting url rewriting to have nice urls, i have existing urls like that :
/xxx/test.php
but in the background, it is allways going to the same script with a query :
/xxx/index.php?id=test
with the following rewrite :
RewriteRule ^xxx/([0-9a-z\-]*)\.php$ /xxx/index\.php?id=$1 [QSA,L]
it's working fine.
now, there are old urls still like /xxx/index.php?id=$1
and i want to get rid of these old urls, meaning I want all of them to be for the users like /xxx/test.php with a 301 redirect
i did a rewrite for this but then i'm entering a loop despite the L flag
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^id=(.*)$
RewriteRule ^xxx/index\.php$ /xxx/%1.php? [R=301,L]
? is it possible to handle that and how ?
and other to describe it is allways use the script :
/xxx/index.php?id=$1
but allways have the right url in the browser displayed
Keep your existing
RewriteRule ^xxx/([0-9a-z\-]*)\.php$ /xxx/index\.php?id=$1 [QSA,L]
which appears to work fine.
Add in these two lines before that which will catch if there is an id= and strip it out of the URL.
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^id=([^&]*)(.*)$
RewriteRule ^xxx/([0-9a-z\-]*)\.php$ /xxx/index\.php?id=%1%2 [L,R=301]
^ start of query string
([^&])* any character except &
(.*) any following characters
So if query string is id=test&something=else RewriteRule will append exactly that and nothing else as there is no more QSA flag.
Try those 3 lines together (htaccess test website), here is the full htaccess file:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^id=([^&]*)(.*)$
RewriteRule ^xxx/([0-9a-z\-]*)\.php$ /xxx/index\.php?id=%1%2 [L]
RewriteRule ^xxx/([0-9a-z\-]*)\.php$ /xxx/index\.php?id=$1 [QSA,L]
Make your RewriteRule not match index.php or remove the QSA flag.
Say you type test.php well now you will go to index.php?id=test
Then Rewrite occurs again and you will go to index.php?id=index&id=test
Then it will occur again because the page is different: index.php?id=index&id=index&id=test etc.
So add in your regex a negative lookahead: xxx/(?!index)([0-9a-z\-]*)\.php
Try:
RewriteRule ^xxx/(?!index)([0-9a-z\-]*)\.php$ /xxx/index\.php?id=$1 [QSA,L]
I am working on a website project where we basically move from TYPO3 to a WordPress & Magento-solution.
Before launching the new site, I would like to add rewrite rules to point the old (TYPO3, non-SEF) URLs to the corresponding new ones. I have an Excel-list with around 1000 URLs that I somehow would like to add to htaccess and create 301's.
If you have a better approach for this, I'd be thankful.
What I am struggling with is:
The "old" URL structure looks something like ?id=123\&user_e15proddb1_pi1[domain]=42
the correcponding new URL would be
/de/alle-produkte/neuheiten.html
RewriteEngine is on, RewriteBase is /.
I tried
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^id=123\&user_e15proddb1_pi1[domain]=42$
RewriteRule . /de/alle-produkte/neuheiten.html [R=301,L]
With additionally escaping the _and the [] with no avail.
I tried to seperate the {QUERY_STRING}s into two by
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^id=123$
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^user_e15proddb1_pi1[domain]=42$
followed by TheRule. Also no avail.
Rewriting itself works, because I tried
RewriteRule .id=123\&user_e15proddb1_pi1\[domain\]=42$ /de/alle-produkte/neuheiten.html [R=301,L]
But that only works without the question mark in the beginning.
Could you give me a hint on what I am doing wrong?
You can use this rule by escaping [ and ]:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^id=123&user_e15proddb1_pi1\[domain\]=42$
RewriteRule ^ /de/alle-produkte/neuheiten.html? [R=302,L]
Also note ? at the end of target URI to strip off any existing query string to prevent a redirect loop.
I got a solution to and made this one work:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^id=123\&user\_e15proddb1\_pi1\[domain\]=42$
RewriteRule (.*) /de/alle-produkte/neuheiten.html? [R=301,L]
Proably something with escaping those characters was going wrong when I tried over and over again.
I'm trying to make nice links in my apps.
I decided to rewrite links that look like these:
1. http://example.cz/get1/get2/get3
2. http://example.cz
Into these (I have php appliactions only):
1. http://example.cz/index.php?path=get1+get2+get3
2. http://example.cz/index.php?path=
I'm removing www before links.
I keep failing to rewrite it into .htaccess.
I'm also looking for advice if the primary idea of rewriting get params into path=get1+get2+get3 is good? Right now I can see that link like this http://www.example.cz/you+me/ could possibly fail somewhere. Do you have any better solution?
So question is: How to rewrite it into .htaccess and how to solve possible problems with link that contains '+'
EDIT:
I improved my skills a little and I did this:
RewriteEngine on
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.+)$
RewriteRule (.*) http://%1/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^\/index.php(.*)
RewriteRule ^(.+) /index.php?path=/$1 [R=301,L] # 301 is here so I can see how does it work
# everything above works well (as I want)
# link now look like this one:
# http://example.net/index.php?path=/get1/get2/get3
# Now I was looking for universal rule that will rewrite my get params...
# First I did this:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} /([^/]+)
RewriteCond %1 !index.php(.*)
RewriteRule /([^/]+) $1+ [R=301,L]
# If any part of request uri is string that matches pattern /([^/]+)
# And if ([^/]+) doesn't match index.php(.*)
# then rewrite every /([^/]+) into $1+
# Now I see that it is incorrect, but I wasn't able to fix it
# So then I did different rule
RewriteRule ^([^=]+=[^\/]*)\/([^\/]+)(.*)$ $1$2+$3 [R=301,L]
# start of string
# first var is: one or more chars except =, =, zero or more chars except /
# /
# second var is: one or more chars except /
# third var is: zero or more chars
# end of string
I think second idea was much more better, but it doesn't work too. Please help me to fix it.
You can do this with the Apache module mod_rewrite. Chances are you probably already have it installed. Try this:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/?$ index.php?path=$1+$2+$3 [L]
This regex assumes the URL will always contain three groups of text between slashes. You can tweak it as needed.
Also note that Apache never sees the URL hash, so you won't be able to match it in a rewrite rule. Luckily, it looks like you don't want to do anything with it anyway. Just use the rule above, and the hash will remain at the end of the URL in the browser.
I did solution. Problem was that after adding index.php?path= I wasn't able to work with query string...
The final universal solution that turn links from http://www.example.net/get1/get2/get3 to
http://example.net/index.php?path=get1+get2+get3:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.+)$
RewriteRule (.*) http://%1/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^\/index.php(.*)
RewriteRule ^(.+) /index.phppath=/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^([^=]+=[^/]*)/([^/]+)(.*)$ $1$2+/$3 [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^(.*)\+/+$ $1 [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^(.*)path=(.*)$ $1?path=$2 [R=301,L]
I am trying to use the .htaccess code to have different pages loaded when mobile user-agent recognized.
It doesn't work but I can't figure why, can someone please help?
The below RewriteConds work for me when followed by the RewriteRule for redirecting to subdomain, so I guess there must be a problem with my RewriteRules.
Help appreciated.

RewriteRule ^regular.css$ mobi.css
RewriteRule ^view.$ mobile.view.
You writing ^view.$ supposes that you think of a file named "view." (it's the complete filename, ending with a dot). Is that really what you mean?
$ marks the end (of the original string the regex is being matched against). Perhaps, you don't need it.
(Read docs about regexes before you use them in order to understand every symbol you write! Writing code and not understanding what it means is not nice.)
Further problems
I see, after you get rid of the $, you might get further problems, because you might want to construct a complete filename on the right-hand side of the rewrite-rule (like something that eveluates to "mobile.view.mainlayout.php") (or not?).
I don't remember: does Apache's rewrite-rules rewrite only the small matched piece ("view.") in the string and concatenate it with the rest of the requested filename ("mainlayout.php"), or Apache throws away the old requested filename ("view.mainlayout.php") and replaces it with what it finds on the right-hand side of the rewrite-rule (so it must be not a replacing piece like "mobile.view.", but rather evaluate to a complete filename)?
If so, then match the rest of the string with ( ) in the regex on the left-hand side of the rewrite-rule, and insert the matched piece back on the right-hand side.
Main problem is that you cannot have multiple RewriteRules after RewriteConds, so your second RewriteRule will be executed every time.
You have to do a little workaround with the skip flag, see below.
Note: The RewriteConds are 'inverted'.
The second problem is your RegEx: RewriteRule ^view.$ mobile.view. just rewrites the URL view (followed by one random char) to the URL mobile.view..
As I noticed in your comment, you have to do something like this:
RewriteRule ^view\.(.*)$ mobile.view.$1 # files and .htaccess have to be in the same directory

You want a [PT] on your RewriteRule statements.
Skipping is probably your best bet:
RewriteCond "%{HTTP_USER_AGENT}" "!(first-condition-regex)" [NC]
RewriteCond "%{HTTP_USER_AGENT}" "!(second-condition-regex)" [NC]
RewriteRule "^" "-" [SKIP=2]
RewriteRule "^regular.css$" "mobi.css" [PT]
RewriteRule "^(view\..*)" "mobile.$1" [PT]
If you want to avoid inverting your conditions it gets a bit messier:
RewriteCond "%{HTTP_USER_AGENT}" "first-condition-regex" [OR,NC]
RewriteCond "%{HTTP_USER_AGENT}" "second-condition-regex" [NC]
RewriteRule "^" "-" [E=MOBILE:TRUE]
RewriteCond "%{ENV:MOBILE}" "!=TRUE"
RewriteRule "^" "-" [SKIP=2]
RewriteRule "^regular.css$" "mobi.css" [PT]
RewriteRule "^(view\..*)" "mobile.$1" [PT]
As pointed out, all these files need to be in the same directory as the .htaccess file.
