How can I enable clean urls in Yii2. I want to remove index.php and '?' from url parameters. Which section needs to be edited in Yii2 for that?
I got it working in yii2. Enable mod_rewrite
for Apache
.
For basic template
do the following:
Create a .htaccess file in web folder and add this
RewriteEngine on
# If a directory or a file exists, use it directly
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
# Otherwise forward it to index.php
RewriteRule . index.php
Then inside config folder, in web.php add to components
'urlManager' => [
'class' => 'yii\web\UrlManager',
// Disable index.php
'showScriptName' => false,
// Disable r= routes
'enablePrettyUrl' => true,
'rules' => array(
'<controller:\w+>/<id:\d+>' => '<controller>/view',
'<controller:\w+>/<action:\w+>/<id:\d+>' => '<controller>/<action>',
'<controller:\w+>/<action:\w+>' => '<controller>/<action>',
),
],
In the case of advanced template
create the .htaccess
files inside backend/web
and frontend/web
folders and add urlManager
component inside common/config/main.php
