.htaccess change extensions . php and . html automatically?

Question

I’m using my htaccess like this

# Hide .html or .php extension
## External Redirect 
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\s([^.]+)\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1 [R,NC]

## ## Internal Redirect
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule ^ %{REQUEST_URI}.php

when access meusite.com.br/folder/site/test.php OK he mounts my url like ......... ( meusite.com.br/folder/site/test ) and is without the extension, however if I access so ...

meusite.com.br/folder/site/users.php === Gives 404 error

meusite.com.br/folder/site/index.php === Gives 404 error

'cause he rides those 2 urls up there like this ...

meusite.com.br/index/

meusite.com.br/usuarios/

When I should ride normal like this .......

meusite.com.br/folder/site/users

meusite.com.br/folder/site/index

Where I need to change ?

Answer 1

I would do so:

RewriteEngine On

#Sua definições aqui

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule (.*)$ $1.php

That regular expression of RewriteRule says anything that points to .php if you do not have the extension, however the current Uri request should not be an existing file or folder on the server (settings for RewriteCond).

Answer 2

My suggestion is to check if the "file" (being real or "virtual") is considered only in URL after Slash (/), this because it would avoid conflicts with files with different names (it is a little difficult to detail the problem now), it should be something like:

RewriteEngine On

# Redireciona
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\s([^.]+)\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1 [R,NC,L]

# Reescreve
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)(/|)$ $1.php [L]

The (.*) takes the path and the (/|) is to "ignore" the /, this will help random access the URL like this:

• site.com/foo/bar/

That would cause this:

• /pasta/public_html/foo/bar/.php

And this does not exist, if I understand you want /foo/bar and /foo/bar/ (example urls) access /foo/bar.php, the above code should solve, now chance does not work, try this (ps: I didn’t have time to test):

RewriteEngine On

# Redireciona
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\s([^.]+)\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1 [R,NC,L]

# Reescreve
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)([^/]+)(/|)$ $1$2.php [L]

If you have any POST form you send to .php, that will fail:

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\s([^.]+)\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1 [R,NC,L]

Because it will conflict the POST and the redirect, what you can do is a check, something like:

RewriteEngine On

# Redireciona
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} !^(PUT|POST)$ [NC] #ignora o POST e PUT
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\s([^.]+)\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1 [R,NC,L]

# Reescreve
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)(/|)$ $1.php [L]

Still the best is to adjust your forms, take the .php, thus:

<form class="m-t" role="form" method="post" action="validaacesso.php">

for

<form class="m-t" role="form" method="post" action="validaacesso">
