RewriteEngine: Ignore all query strings

I would like to ignore all query-strings in my redirect. How would I achieve this?

Basically, /project/(.*) should always redirect to /?tag=project&id=$1

/project/100?shareid=fromsomeemailprovider

should end et the ? and only redirect to Id 100.

Thank You!

I tried the following:

^/project/([^/]*)[/]?(.*)$
/?tag=project&id=$1&$2

to put the query-string behind another &, but this only works if the first URL hast a / at the end of it, which it often hasn't and the RewriteRule can't detect the ? sadly.

Solution

  • With your shown samples, please try following htaccess rules file.

    RewriteEngine ON
RewriteRule ^(project)/(.*)/?$ index.php?tag=$1&id=$2 [QSA,NC,L]

    Please make sure:

    • You clear your browser cache before testing your URLs.
    • You make sure to keep your index.php file along with your htaccess rules file. Also add / in case both of these files are in root location in your system.
