I'm having a problem in .htaccess, specifically on redirection.
I wanted to rewrite this url:
http://www.domain.com/?mod=country
to
http://www.domain.com/country
I already tried this .htaccess code:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^\?mod=(.*)$ $1
I tried working on it without the question mark character and it works fine.
I have escaped the question mark because it's part of the special characters, but still, I couldn't get it work.
Can you tell what I'm missing?
Directly translating your requirements to rewrite rules:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^mod=(.*)$
RewriteRule ^$ %1
But you probably want something more flexible like:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (?:^|&)mod=([^&]+)
RewriteRule /?(.*) %1/$1 [QSA]
These rules apply to the root of your domain.
If you want to do an external redirect add the R flag to the rewrite rule.

I need to redirect any requests with query strings from a set of origin URLs back to a thank you page.
For example, I need to redirect:
http://example.com/test1/test2/[origin]/?id=1
back to
http://example.com/thank-you
The way I've got it set up in my .htaccess file is as such:
RewriteEngine On
RedirectMatch 302 ^/test1/test2/(.*)/.+ /thank-you
I've tested the regex I'm using in an online regex tester and it appears to work as expected, so I'm confused as to why the redirect isn't taking place. Here's the link to that.
Obviously, I had to add backslashes to escape the slashes in the URL in the regex tester, but based on my understanding of how .htaccess evaluates regex, these aren't necessary.
My question is: the redirect works perfectly from the page without the query string if I remove the .+ from the end of the regex string, meaning that the beginning part of the regex works fine. I don't understand why the query string isn't matching the regex I've created.
I have also tried:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/test1/test2/(.*)/
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} id=([0-9]+) [NC]
RewriteRule (.*) /thank-you [R=302,L]
For your RedirectMatch, you may use:
RedirectMatch 302 ^/test1/test2/(.*)/(.*)+ /thank-you?
For your RewriteRule section, you may use:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/test1/test2/(.*)/
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} id=([0-9]+) [NC]
RewriteRule (.*) /thank-you [R=302,L,QSD]
First , no need to RewriteEngine On with mod_alias which is RedirectMatch at your rules use it with mod_rewrite , the second rules .
Try this :
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^id=([0-9]+)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^test1/test2/[^\/]+/$ /thank-you? [R=302,L]
I use ^id=([0-9]+)$ to restrict query string for a one that start with id and end with numerical value.
I remove this line RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/test1/test2/(.*)/ becasue you could match against URI in RewriteRule as well.
If this rules wrok , change [R=302,L] to [R=301,L] to be permanent redirection.
Note: clear browser cache then test
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 am not so well versed with regular expressions and .htaccess rewrites and redirects. I have the following :
www.site.com/subDomainName
and I want it redirected to
subDomainName.site.com.
I was able to get some code to do the redirect but it kept being pointed to www.subDomainName.site.com.
Try adding these rules to the htaccess file in your document root:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^subDomainName\.site\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^subDomainName(.*)$ http://subDomainName.site.com$1 [L,R]
To make the redirect permanent, change the R flag in the square brackets to R=301.
I need to do a very simple URL rewrite but my RewriteRule is not working.
I want this URL: http://myweb.com:8080/MySite/bla?bla
To become this: http://myweb.com:8080/MySite/index.php
My .htaccess file content is like this:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule bla\?bla index.php
It is located in "MySite" folder. I can do other url-rewriting rules with success but I got stuck whenever I need to write a rule with question mark inside.
What am I doing wrong?
You need to use the %{QUERY_STRING} rewrite condition for this.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^bla$
RewriteRule ^/?bla$ index.php [NC,L]
Please, note that the ? in the rewrite rule is not there to match against the ? in the query string. That part is handled completely by %{QUERY_STRING}. The [NC] just makes the rule case-insensitive and [L] marks the rule as last.
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]
