I've tried a number of different snippets inside my .htaccess file in order to remove the .html file extension from displaying in the URL. So far I've read some other answers on here that haven't worked, researched some personal blogs, and even found some tricks that didn't work on Chris Coyier's CSS Tricks.
Here's a couple of the ones I've tried:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.html [NC,L]
As well as:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.html
I appreciate any help I can get.
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.html

I'm building a site in a Node.js container, and the .htaccess is not working. I just want to remove the .html off the url, but the following just downloads the pages as files. Sorry if this has been answered, just need help. Thanks!
What we currently have:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)\.html$ /$1 [L,R=301]
To remove .html all you need to use is:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.html [NC,L]
EDIT:
Some hosting services require a slightly different layout:
Options +MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.html [NC,L]
I have a .htaccess file with the contents below, that removes the .html file extension for all of my website's pages.
Options +MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.html [NC,L]
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !=443
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?james-lee\.io$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^$ https://www.james-lee.io%{REQUEST_URI} [R,L]
My links now look like www.james-lee.io/resume/resume when before they looked like www.james-lee.io/resume/resume.html. I would like to remove the folder name so the name of the folder is not duplicated by the name of the file minus the .html and the final result looks like www.james-lee.io/resume.
I have seen similar questions but not exactly what I am looking for.
So I have done this task!
Try this code:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/(.*)/(.*)$
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/%1 -d
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/%1/%2 -f
RewriteCond %1::%2 ^(.*)::\1$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /%1 [R,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^(.*)/(.*)$ /$1/$1 [END]
Now I try to explain this rules.
first line: you do request like /folder/file
second line: check if /folder/ real existing folder
third line: check if /folder/file is real existing file
fourth line: I use notation %1::%2 because backreferences can only
be used in the left part of RewriteCond. But it possible to reuse
left part in pattern of the right part. So, in the "^(.*)::\1$" I
check all before ::. Then I have result at the \1 backreference. So,
if folder is equal to file, text after :: will be equal to %2.
Next I just redirect to the result (/folder or /file, doesn't
matter, because both are equal)
But if folder == file, redirect will be always to the directory.
So, next I check, if redirect result is existing dir and change the link.
Request example:
http://yourdomain/test/test
(this will be redirected to http://yourdomain/test, but will reference to original link)
I hope, I explain clearly, but if you have any questions, I would glad to answer.
Thank you for insteresting task!
P.S. see also %N backreference inside RewriteCond
UPDATED. Your htaccess have to be like below:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !=443
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?james-lee\.io$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^$ https://www.james-lee.io%{REQUEST_URI} [R,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/(.*)/(.*)$
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/%1 -d
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/%1/%2\.html -f
RewriteCond %1::%2 ^(.*)::\1$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /%1 [R,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^(.*)/(.*)$ /$1/$1.html [END]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.html [NC,L]
I am trying to remove .html
so the site is www.example.com/login
login.html is located in /var/www/html/login.html
I created .htaccess in /var/www/html/.htaccess
And I put in:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.html
This doesn't seem to work. Can someone tell me what is wrong?
Try it this way.
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/?$ $1.html [L]
Apparently you changed your question.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.html [NC,L]
I want to remove the file extension like .html from my websites with .htaccess. The final structure should be like so:
http://domain.com/file --> http://domain.com/file.html
http://domain.com/file/ --> http://domain.com/file.html
With my existing code in .htaccess I'll get "Internal Server Error" on my Browser when there's a trailing slash at the end. What can I do? Thanks!
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.html
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9-_]+)/?$ $1.html [L]
I suggest you to change your RewriteCond :
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)(\.html){0}$ /$1.html [L]
EDIT : rule edited, I forgot infinite loop.
Trying to remove .html extensions from the site using .htaccess. So for example: www.mysite.com/charts.html would become www.mysite.com/charts
The following script is in the .htaccess file:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)\.html$ /$1 [L,R=301]
But when the url without the .html extension is entered in the browser, it shows a 403 Forbidden error. Any help would be appreciated.
I found this solution elsewhere:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.html
