Question

I found this solution to redirect urls from www.domain.com/example.php to www.domain.com/example successfully but I cannot do the same when are few subdirs present, like with: domain.com/dir1/di2/dir3/example.php to domain.com/dir1/di2/dir3/example

How should this rule be modded in order to make the previous redirection work?

RewriteRule (.*).php$ /$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteRule (.*).html$ /$1 [R=301,L]

This is my .htaccess

ErrorDocument 404 /misc/404.html

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

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

RewriteRule (.*).php$ /$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteRule (.*).html$ /$1 [R=301,L]

# Forces a trailing slash to be added
#RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
#RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
#RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(\.[a-zA-Z0-9]{1,5}|/)$
#RewriteRule (.*)$ /$1/ [R=301,L]

Thank you!

http://demo.domain.com/en/index.php is taking me to http://demo.domain.com/index and it should take me to http://demo.domain.com/en/index

the .htaccess is in /en/ directory

You need to add a:

RewriteBase /en/

right below RewriteEngine on.

You also may need to add a /en/ to the redirect rules and conditions:

RewriteRule (.*).php$ /$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteRule (.*).html$ /$1 [R=301,L]

Needs to be:

RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} !200
RewriteRule (.*).php$ /en/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} !200
RewriteRule (.*).html$ /en/$1 [R=301,L]
