xxxx-yyyy.domain.com = domain.com/search.php?q=yyyy:xxxx:

[lordx]

Nice forum!

Neub on mod-rewrite please be gentle

I tried some of the examples on this forum.

to come up with a mod rewrite for

xxxx-yyyy.domain.com = domain.com/search.php?q=yyyy:xxxx:

its also ok if the output would be

xxxx.domain.com = domain.com/search.php?q=yyyy:xxxx:

as long as it would not mess with other variables of yyyy

and also work with

zzzz.domain.com = domain.com/search.php?q=zzzz


here is my unfinished code so far.

Code: Select all

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.smilingpet\.com
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?([^.]+)\.smilingpet\.com

Rewriterule ^$ /search.php?q=category:%2: [L]
Rewriterule ^$ /search.php?q=brand:%2: [L]
Rewriterule ^$ /search.php?q=merchant:%2: [L]
Rewriterule ^$ /search.php?q=%2 [L]


It works only on category (first line)

How can i modify the code to work with the brand and merchant subdomains conditions?



I am also getting
an error on browsing the main domain

smilingpet.com
and
www.smilingpet.com

it shows the results of page

http://smilingpet.com/search.php?q=category::

You can't have rules that match the same thing (they all match nothing with ^$ at the moment).

xxxx-yyyy.domain.com = domain.com/search.php?q=yyyy:xxxx:

Code: Select all

Options +FollowSymLinks

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^(www\.)?domain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?([^\.]+)-([^\.]+)\.domain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^$ /search.php?q=%3:%2: [L]
