I need a help with blog which is in core php and want to create a pretty url using .htaccess
I have a folder called blog where there are two files.
index.php which is a blog page post.php which display a signle blog post
so what I want to achieve is that someone one visit
It display data from index.php
on the post.php I get data using url slug not using id, so if someone write
https://example.com/blog/my-blogpost-url-slug
It needs to call post.php which has logic to get url so it will be post.php?url=my-blogpost-url-slug will be converted to https://example.com/blog/my-blogpost-url-slug
Basically
https://example.com/blog/index.php should open like example.com/blog/ https://example.com/blog/post?url=mypost-url-slug should open like https://example.com/blog/mypost-url-slug
Following code I tried but it is not working...
All index.php is being redirected to post.php and also url parmater is getting value post.php instead slug url
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (.+)/$
RewriteRule ^ %1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\s([^.]+)\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1 [R,L]
RewriteRule ^([\S\s/+.]+)/?$ post.php?url=$1 [NC,L]
With your shown samples please try following .htaccess rules file.
Make sure to:
RewriteEngine ON
