Is it possible to rewrite this?

[transparencia]

I want to append a ?lang=$language_code on all the .php pages and directories of the website and I would like to rewrite it like this:

 

site.com/language => site.com/index.php?lang=language

site.com/language/dir/ => site.com/dir1.php?lang=language

 

I already have this code in .htaccess:

 

Options -MultiViews

RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /pt/


RewriteRule ^product/(.*).html$ products.php?q=$1&rewrite=1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
RewriteRule ^review/(.*).html$ reviews.php?q=$1&rewrite=1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]

RewriteRule ^merchant/$ merchants.php
RewriteRule ^merchant/(.*)/$ search.php?q=merchant:$1:&rewrite=1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
RewriteRule ^merchant/(.*)/(.*).html$ search.php?q=merchant:$1:&page=$2&rewrite=1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]

RewriteRule ^category/$ categories.php
RewriteRule ^category/(.*)/$ search.php?q=category:$1:&rewrite=1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
RewriteRule ^category/(.*)/(.*).html$ search.php?q=category:$1:&page=$2&rewrite=1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]

 

Is it possible to do this?

Try the following rules

RewriteRule ([a-z]+)/([a-z0-9_-]+)/? $2.php?lang=$1 [NC,L]
RewriteRule ([a-z]+)/? index.php?lang=$1 [NC,L]

 

RewriteRule ([a-z]+)/([a-z0-9_-]+)/? $2.php?lang=$1 [NC,L]

Will map site.com/en/dir/ to site.com/dir.php?lang=en

 

RewriteRule ([a-z]+)/? index.php?lang=$1 [NC,L]

Will map site.com/en/ to site.com/index.php?lang=en

That is not working properly. It is not allowing the .css and .jpg to be shown and also it just stays in the index.php even if click on another link.

 

Is it because of the other rewrite rules?

[wildteen88]

Change the rewrite rules to

RewriteRule ^([a-z]{2})/([a-z0-9_-]+)/?$ $2.php?lang=$1 [NC,L]
RewriteRule ^([a-z]{2})/?$ test.php?lang=$1-89 [NC,L]

 

I have limited the first match to only two characters.

You may also want to add these lines

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

After this line

RewriteEngine On

You may also want to add these lines

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

After this line

RewriteEngine On

Doing so would seem fairly pointless as the conditions would only apply to the first RewriteRule encountered, i.e.

 

RewriteRule ^product/(.*).html$ products.php?q=$1&rewrite=1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]

 

In this situation I'd suggest inverting those conditions and 'exiting' if the file/directory does exists. Thus giving you the following code to be placed in the same place that wildteen88 mentioned.

 

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d [OR]
RewriteRule ^ - [L]

Oh, I never knew that. Learned something new today.
