Hi

I have this link

www.mydomain.com/pages/main/page.html

and how to write rule for mode rewrite for link like this:

www.mydomain.com/page.html

Pages are genereted from CMS and have always /pages/main/. I want to write rule working for all pages.

[richardk]

Is /pages/main/page.html an existing file?
Do you have any mod_rewrite at the moment?

Try

Code: Select all

Options +FollowSymLinks

RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/pages/main%{REQUEST_URI} -f
RewriteRule ^[^/]+\.html$ /pages/main/$0 [QSA,L]

This rule works

I have above only one rule

AddType application/x-httpd-php .html

and /pages/main/page.php realy exist.

But I have one more question. In this CMS folder /pages/main/ is only for first menu level. When user create somthing like this:

main
-Offer folder
-----First page.html
-----Second page.html
- Contact folder
- About Us folder
- Offer page.html
- Contact page.html
- About Us.html


This rule dosen't work for First page.html. Patch to this page is :

www.mydomain.com/pages/main/offer/firstpage.html

How to write rule for firstpage.html?

Replace

Code: Select all

[^/]

which doesn't match slashes with

Code: Select all

.

which does.

Hi

This rule must be modified that?

Code: Select all

Options +FollowSymLinks

RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/pages/main%{REQUEST_URI} -f
RewriteRule ^.+\.html$ /pages/main/$0 [QSA,L]


Because this rule dosen't work

Is it giving you a 404 error?

You are visiting /offer/firstpage.html, it should go to /pages/main/offer/firstpage.html and /pages/main/offer/firstpage.html is an existing file?

Where is the mod_rewrite?

Try

Code: Select all

Options +FollowSymLinks

RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/pages/main/$0 -f
RewriteRule ^.+\.html$ /pages/main/$0 [QSA,L]
