I have a little mod_rewrite problem and really need some help.
I need to have a second .htaccess file in a subfolder for a project on my domain.
The URL to the project is like:
https://example.com/project-name/
Now I have a query parameter for which I want to create a nice URL with mod_rewrite.
The URL including the parameter looks like this:
https://example.com/project-name/index.php?preset=nameofapreset
And I want it to be:
https://example.com/project-name/nameofapreset
The important thing: The mod_rewrite has to work for the current folder only. Without having any info about the current path, cause I need to use the file in other folders, too.
That's what I thought should work (cause I am using a similar rewrite rule in another project):
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^([a-z])/?$ index.php?preset=$1
But it doesn't. And all my trials fail.
Any ideas how I can make it work?
Thanks!
You can use this rule in /project-name/.htaccess:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([\w-]+)/?$ index.php?preset=$1 [L,QSA]
