Oke so i got something like

mysite.com/dl2/Sksa4saO0-12ko
its:
download.php?dl2=1&key=Sksa4saO0&ukey=12ko

i want to rewrite it to:

username.mysite.com/dl2/Sksa4saO0-12ko

example

Jhon.mysite.com/dl2/I1230MS41s-K4a0

Sksa4saO0 = key
12ko = unique-key

username = php variable ( get it from the key)

As far as i can tell (because the username is not used in the original URL), you don't need any additional mod_rewrite.

You need to create DNS for the sub domains (probably Wildcard DNS). Then, Apache needs to be configured to send all the sub domain requests to the directory that contains the .htaccess file (your current document root).

download.php?user=Jhonny_boy&key=8321FG7AS&ukey=4ace

Jhonny_boy.mysite.com/8321FG7AS-4ace


It can be made with .htaacces but i dont really know subdomains...

No. If there is user=Jhonny_boy, then you need a different mod_rewrite.
Code: Select all
Options +FollowSymLinks

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
# Don't match the www sub domain.
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.example\.com$ [NC]
# Match the sub domain (%1).
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^([^\.]+)\.example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^([a-z0-9]+)-([a-z0-9]+)/?$ /download.php?user=%1&key=$1&ukey=$2 [NC,QSA,L]

What happens when you go to jhonny_boy.mysite.com?
Do you have DNS for the sub domains?
Where do the sub domains go (what directory) on the server?
What is you main domain's document root?

You set up DNS from where ever you registered your domain.

Wildcard DNS.

this must be done with .htaccess

DNS is totally seperate from Apache, .htaccess and mod_rewrite.
