I want to know if there is a way to prevent visitors on the website to see the full site url .. so for example instead of http://www.5eren.dk/index.php all the user see's is http://www.5eren.dk .. is this possible ?
If i am understanding you correctly check out .htaccess rewrite condition and rewrite engine.
For example to hide a file extension:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php
This should get you started.
Simply NO
However, depending on your server-side scripting technology you use on your website, such functionality may be applied by a mean of central script that call some URL on your website and render it as it is being the requested script with some param.
For example:
Suppose the following URL
http://myexample.com/secrets/pages/output.php
Now we may request it using some routing script as follows:
http://myexample.com/routing.php?routeID=123
Using some database inside your routing script you may able to call or include the secrets/pages/ouput.php

i would like to incorporate wildcard characters to my site. so previously it was
www.mysite.com/user/mike or www.mysite.com/user/dave will look like
mike.mysite.com or dave.mysite.com. i tried .htacces rewriting but those were of rewriting for sub-domains and it was creating problems with css and images.I just want that too call user function with value we pass.I use RoR MVC framework.(i'm sure .htacces solve this issue but i don't know if we can give wildcards in routes too).
and i would like to keep other links normal like www.mysite/project/dashboard or www.mysite/project/messages.
Thanks in advance.
edit
i tried this but it dosent work, it's goes to site5s default page.
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond ^(.*)$.example.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://example.com/user/$1 [R=301,L]'
ok, finnaly i was able to do it,there will be few things which you have to do first.
paste this code in .htaccess first of all.
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
// enable rewriting
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(.+)\.example\.com$ // Check for wildcard character before example.com
RewriteCond %1 !=www // check if www is not present in URL
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.example.com/user/%1/$1 [R=302,L] // Redirect URL and replace matched wildcard character "^(.+)" in place of "$1"
Now we have defined the rules for that, now it's turn of redirection. above code won't be able to work.
for that you have to create a wildcard sub domain in from your Cpanle. Create a sub domain *.example.com and point to your public_html(you subsite if t\redirected site is a child site)
I Want to Generate Search Engine Friendly urls for eg:- say I have a link below like
http://www.apexengineeringproject.com/display_project.php?id=AP112&title=ADVANCED%20OFFICE%20AUTOMATION%20SYSTEM%20USING%20GSM%20AND%20MICROCONTROLLER
I Just want it to be
http://www.apexengineeringproject.com/display_project.php/AP112/ADVANCED%20OFFICE%20AUTOMATION%20SYSTEM%20USING%20GSM%20AND%20MICROCONTROLLER
I tried with rewrite in .htaccess but didnt succeeded even Im not getting how to GET parameters once link is converted to seo friendly.So anybody please help me in this situation.
EDIT:
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} \/index\.php [NC]
RewriteRule (.*) apexengineeringproject.com [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^display_project.php/([^/]+)/([^/]+) /display_project.php?id=$1&title=$2 [NC]
This is the content of my .htaccess file but problem is page gets loaded but not the styles and javascripts.
Most likely, you're referencing your script/style files using a relative file name. The browser will use the whole directory path up to the last slash before the query string for fetching relative paths.
For example, when using the page before rewrite;
http://www.apexengineeringproject.com/display_project.php
...and it looks for a script at scripts/test.js, the browser will fetch it from;
http://www.apexengineeringproject.com/scripts/test.js
When using the page after rewrite;
http://www.apexengineeringproject.com/display_project.php/AP112/ADVANCED%20OFFICE%20AUTOMATION%20SYSTEM%20USING%20GSM%20AND%20MICROCONTROLLER
...a fetch of the relative path scripts/test.js will fetch the file;
http://www.apexengineeringproject.com/display_project.php/AP112/scripts/test.js
...which presumably does not exist.
To fix the problem, just make your script paths and css paths relative to the server root, ie don't use scripts/test.js, instead use /scripts/test.js.
EDIT: Although I'd consider it slightly hacky, you could rewrite some files back to the root. Can't test this, but it should be close to what you want;
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} \.(jpg|css|png|js)$ [NC]
RewriteRule display_project.php/[^/]*(.*) $1 [NC]
I would like to be able to access this URL on my website:
www.mysite.com/author/username
trough this one
www.mysite.com/username
Please consider that people should be able to access using the two url and that the "username" always change depending on the user.
What would be the best way to do it? htaccess rewrite?
Thank for your time!
Seems like it could be messy and box you in if your users create names that match paths that overlap with existing or future paths.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/[a-z]+$ #1
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f #2
RewriteRule ^/([a-z]+)$ /author/$1 [P] #3
try to restrict it as much as possible to your username pattern
only rewrite if the path doesn't already exist
proxy to the /author/username version of the URL
First of all this method clearly working on github, for example pages showing done:
https://github.com/account
https://github.com/inbox
There is no .php extension at all + not needed ?page=account or ?page=inbox
In my opinion it's done via .htaccess.
Maybe someone knows how it should look in order to archieve same effect like github site ?
This can be achieved using mod_rewrite for apache
You put a .htaccess file in your document root and give it rules (Regular Expressions) to match the called URLs with
It looks similar to this:
RewriteEngine On
# rule to call MyPage.php if you call the URL http://yourdomain.com/MyPage
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php
# rule to add GET params
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?page=$1
There are several tutorials regarding mod_rewrite on the internet
Using MVC. Is there a way to make any url like .example.com to point to example.com/user/
as in http://marwan.example.com to point to example.com/user/marwan
The controller is user and the action is index which takes marwan as its variable.
One idea I had is to make a custom error page to handle 404 and see if the url starts with something like *.example.com and redirect to the proper controller. There must be a better way to do this!
Take a look at this answer it may help you out.
ASP.NET URL Rewriting
You can try the following:
RewriteConf %{HTTP_HOST} !^example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://example.com/user/%1$1
RewriteRule ^/user/([a-zA-Z0-9]+)\.example\.com/(.*) http://example.com/user/$1/$2 [NC,L]
What this rule does is first insert the host into the URL path and then strip out the correct values from the host and write it the way you want on the backend.
