svgmx5 Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 i'm looking for help with rewriting a url i have.... The link i have currently looks like this: domain.com/page.php?city=cityname&state=state&country=country I want to make that URL look like this: domain.com/countryname/statename/cityname/ I have included the current .httaccess that i'm using to covert other links that i have... <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule ^(.*)$ types.php?name=$1 [L,QSA] </IfModule> This is working to convert links such as this: 'domain.com/page.php?name=name' to 'domain.com/name' This work perfectly but since i have to have the city, state and country in the URL to display the correct city i want to know how i can use the .htaccess to create that. Hope someone can help me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phpJoeMo Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 I think something along the lines of this will do what you want: Put the following ABOVE your rewrite rules & conditions: RewriteBase / Then add this anywhere in your rules & conditions: RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^city=([^/]*)&state=([^/]*)&country=([^/]*) RewriteRule ^.*$ /%1/%2/%3/ Let me know how it works out.

phpJoeMo Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 Alternatively you could reverse the order like so: RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^city=([^/]*)&state=([^/]*)&country=([^/]*) RewriteRule ^.*$ [b] /%3/%2/%1/[/b] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phpJoeMo Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 Sorry didn't realize the bold didn't work inside the code. You can alter the order like so: RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^city=([^/]*)&state=([^/]*)&country=([^/]*) RewriteRule ^.*$ /%3/%2/%1/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
