Rewrite a perticular URL in .htaccess file not based on pattern


I want to rewrite a single URL of my website (Joomla) to a friendly URL i.e.

www.example.com/index.php?option=com_mycomponent&view=article&id=10&nav_button=0&article_layout=1&Itemid=503

to

www.example.com/favourit

without disturbing the other URLs of the website

Thank you for your help.


Solution

  • Original question:

    Try

    RewriteRule ^favourit$ /index.php?option=com_mycomponent&view=article&id=10&nav_button=0&article_layout=1&Itemid=503 [L]
    

    OP springs a sub folder..

    If you intend to move the site live, as example.com presumes your already live but your comment suggests your still working on localhost then you should.

    Put in the webroot thats / not /mysite

    RewriteRule ^mysite/favourit$ /mysite/index.php?option=com_mycomponent&view=article&id=10&nav_button=0&article_layout=1&Itemid=503 [L]
    

    This is temporary so you don't need to fix once you go live.
