htaccess Redirect 301 to new url with dynamic subdomain,protocol

I want to redirect an old url to a new url like this:

Redirect 301 www.domain.ro/index.php www.domain.ro/

But in my case i have a dynamic subdomain , and i don't know how to build the line:

Redirect 301 www.domain.subsdomain.ro/index.php www.domain.subsdomain.ro/

Now,besides that the subdomain is dynamic, also the protocol can be http or https and the user can type in the www or not, so the line would look like:

Redirect 301 domain.{*}.ro/index.php domain.{*}.ro/

{*} - wildcard that matches every alphabetic char between dots

Solution

  • You don't meed to use domain name in target when it is same as the source URL. Besides you cannot even main host name in Redrect directive.

    Just use this rule using mod_rewrite to remove index.php:

    RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /index\.php[?\s] [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^(.*/)index\.php$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1 [L,R=301,NE]
