Question

Having some issues with .htaccess on my website. I’m trying to alter the suffix of the URLs for my website. URLs currently appear as:

www.example.com/about.phtml

I want to remove about.phtml and replace it with about so it looks like:

www.example.com/about

The examples I’m using are not what I need on the website so I would like code that I don’t have to go through and specify which specific page to remove it from and rather do it all automatically.

I’ve tried using php instead of phtml with no luck. Here is the code I am using:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.phtml -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.phtml

Any ideas what I am doing wrong here?

FYI: my host is JustHost and they allow me to edit my .htaccess but if anyone has heard of or had any problems with them please let me know, I spoke to their tech-support who couldn’t help me any more than I can help myself.

Try this :

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.phtml [NC,L]
