Making example.com/blogs redirect to example.com/blogs.php

[ArizonaJohn]

Hello,

 

I have a page with a URL like "example.com/blogs.php".  Is there a way I could direct users to this page if they type in "example.com/blogs"?

 

Thanks in advance,

 

John

If you are on an apache server you can use mod_rewrite.  If you have mod_rewrite enabled on your Apache server, you can place a .htaccess file in your webroot and set up a rule that will redirect the url appropriately.

The previous method works, but you can just have your default file in that /blogs directory redirect to blogs.php.

 

If index.php is the default file, just place index.php in that directory:

<?php
header("Location: blogs.php");
?>
