.htaccess write php string query in url

[Richard_Grant]

Okay so i have a URL like this..

https://www.mysite.com/board/profile.php?user=1

I want the URL to be like this..

https://www.mysite.com/user/1

.htaccess rewrites have always confused me.

You will first need to edit your PHP script so it outputs the links in the new format. Eg

<a href="/user/1">FooBar</a>

Then in .htaccess file in the your sites document root. You can use the following rule

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule user/(\d+) board/profile.php?user=$1 [NC]

To map /user/x to /board/profile.php?user=x

Thank you im sure that will work exactly the way i need it to, i will let you know as soon as i finish making the user profile!

im using this:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} user/(.*)/(.*)/
RewriteRule user/(.*)/(.*)/ %{DOCUMET_ROOT}/board/profile.php?ID=$1&NAME=$2

Is that fine? its working fine but is it depreciated or anything?

[Richard_Grant]

Ahhh! i just found out that if i type

https://www.mysite.com/user/RichardGrant/1

 

it doesnt recongnize the url because the trailing slash...

 

but this works fine!

https://www.mysite.com/user/RichardGrant/1/

Probably because you have a trailing slash in the RewriteCondition
