Question

What I have is http://site.com/index.php?i=1
and want to work with:

• [1] http://site.com/about and
• [2] http://site.com/about/ (notice slash at the end)

I use following rules:

RewriteEngine On  
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d  
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f   
RewriteRule ^(.*)/?$ index.php?i=$1 [QSA,L]  

And this works only for [1] but if I put / at the end it redirects to http://site.com

I tried different options but or I get not found or server error or works only one of those. Any idea?

Answer 1

If you want redirection for URI /about/ to /index.php?i=1 then your rule should be:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d  
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f   
RewriteRule ^about/?$ index.php?i=1 [QSA,L,NC]

Not sure why you are match everything by using (.*) there.
