denoteone Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 Not sure if this is the correct forum but here goes. I just redid a 100 page+ site and now all pages are named the same but end in a .php extension. I would like to keep all of my inbound links so if the link is www.mydomain.com/contact.html the server would serve up the page www.mydomain.com/contact.php is this possible and if it is do I alter the php config file?

gevans Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 You want to use a .htaccess file, it needs to go in the route directory in the .htaccess file put; RemoveHandler .html AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerRobot Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 That's not going to work. That would be fine if you wanted to let html files be parsed as php but, as i understand it, those html files no longer exist. You'll need to use the mod_rewrite apache module, with the following in a .htaccess file in your web root: RewriteEngine on RewriteRule (.*?)\.html$ $1.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
