How do you do dynamic url. example.com/profile/CroatiaGM

I am doing the user control panel, and I have some problems I am not sure how to do this dynamic profile link currently. example.com/profile/CroatiaGM What would be the best way to go about this, My site is mainly PHP, is it better to use js or?

I'm assuming you're looking to rewrite a URL, where you'd like to rewrite example.com/profile.php?user=CroatiaGM to example.com/profile/CroatiaGM.
in such an instance I believe this would be helpful if you don't already have a .htaccess file, I suggest you create one in your main directory/public_html
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^profile/([^/]+)?$ profile.php?username=$1
RewriteRule ^profile/([^/]+)/([^/]+)?$ profile.php?username=$1&type=$2
</IfModule>
or
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/([^/]+)?$ $1.php?username=$2
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/([^/]+)/([^/]+)?$ $1.php?username=$2&type=$3
</IfModule>
Here's a working example.

I strongly advise making a back of the .htaccess before saving any changes.

How to make url id parameter like a path [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
Reference: mod_rewrite, URL rewriting and "pretty links" explained
(5 answers)
Closed 3 years ago.
so I've got a problem. I want to make this URL
https://example.com/l/click.php?id=something
to look like this
https://example.com/l/something
Does anyone know how to make it happen per code?
I tried editing & using this sample .htaccess code but it didnt worked :/
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^/?users/(.*?)/?$ /users.php?name=$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /users\.php\?name=([^\&\ ]+)
RewriteRule ^/?users\.php$ /users/%1? [L,R=301]

You will need to implement rewriteRule in your .htaccess file in the directory where your php files resides.
Something like create a file called .htaccess and save the code below in it
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)$ click.php?id=$1
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)/$ click.php?id=$1
On your php you will have something like
<a href = "click/$id'></a>
or
<a href = "/$id'></a>
Always remember to shut down apache and restart it for it to take effect

So, I tested some .htaccess code and made my solution.
It's pretty simple and works the best way it could!
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ click.php?id=$1 [L]
If you want to use it on your own just change the click.php to your own PHP file

Laravel - href in ignored subfolder trouble

I have a bit of trouble with in a folder that laravel is ignoring.
In my .htacces I have a line that will ignore my folder called 'doc'.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
<IfModule mod_negotiation.c>
Options -MultiViews
</IfModule>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^(doc) - [L] <-- this one
# Redirect Trailing Slashes If Not A Folder...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (.+)/$
RewriteRule ^ %1 [L,R=301]
# Handle Front Controller...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
# Handle Authorization Header
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} .
RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]
and it works like it should.... kinda.. Example: 'localhost/doc/main.js' works fine if i type it direct into my webbrowser.
Here is my problem: in my /doc i have a 'index.html' that include/require/link some files into it from the doc dir. So in the index.html I have a line
<script data-main="./main.js" src="./vendor/require.min.js"></script>
When I go to 'localhost/doc' I get error that file cant be found (and alot others). linking to 'localhost/vendor/require.min.js'. This should be 'localhost/doc/vendor/require.min.js'
NOTE: this file is generated with ApiDocJS
Anyone have a solution for me, am stuck for about 4 hours now... am getting frustrated

I'll suggest to try to do the same in a different way.
If you're stuck for so long on a problem like that, try changing the way you are following to accomplish your goal.
Why that directory?
Why ignoring it in .htaccess?
Why not separate the logic of the app from the thing I want to hide?
Can I configure the libraries I want to use in order to specify a directory?
Can I refactor some of my code to prevent the ignore-the-dir-in-htaccess thing? (Since it's not common to do that)
That questions will move you to another direction that may or may not help you with your problem, but that's what I always do on a problem I'm stuck for more than 30 minutes, asking myself for another way of doing the same thing.

remove the index.php WAMP

I have a site and it works to type "www.mysite.com/folder/" (if i have a index file in that folder).
It also works to type "www.mysite.com/folder/index.php"
All fine and good, but I want it so if you type /index.php it will remove the index.php on the end also if I use a form and post to index.php I don't want that to show in the url.
I have looked around and seen every solution say .htaccess rewrite, but It don't seem to be working / or its just not the same thing that I want?
or do I need to use javascript and update the address bar?
(I'm using WAMP)
EDIT:
Things I've have tried:
1
httpd.conf
AllowOverride All
2
I have enabled:
Apache modules> rewrite_module
3
I have created a .htaccess placed in my wamp/www folder
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]
4
wamp/apps/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php
added
$cfg['index_page'] = '';
EDIT 2:
This look like it works, but it messes up my POST to index.php so it breaks my login (It don't start the session).
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /(.*)index\.php($|\ |\?)
RewriteRule ^ /%1 [R=301,L]

An .htaccess file is definitely the correct solution. If it isn't working, try one of these possible answer:

Update: Re-reading your question, you might be using an older htaccess script (for PHP < 5.2.6 version). I'm not sure if the script will work in current versions. Try:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 [L]
The ? after index.php in final line is the difference
If above doesn't help, what version of PHP does the PHP command phpinfo() report?
<?php
phpinfo();
die();

Link not opening properly after hiding file extension using htaccess

I have used ht-access to hide .php file extension. Inside .htaccess file my code is :
# Apache Rewrite Rules
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
# Add trailing slash to url
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(\.[a-zA-Z0-9]{1,5}|/|#(.*))$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1/ [R=301,L]
# Remove .php-extension from url
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)/$ $1.php
# End of Apache Rewrite Rules
</IfModule>
It's hiding .php file extension well. But problem is that, link inside href attribute is not opening properly.
I have two files:
public_html/afiliate/product_details.php
public_html/afiliate/afiliate_login.php
Inside product_details.php I have given link of afiliate_login.php like this
Log in
Clicking Log in I should go to a page like
example.com/afiliate/afiliate_login/
But it takes me to
example.com/afiliate/product_details/afiliate_login/
And hence a 404 error
Again notice that, if i manually type this URL
example.com/afiliate/afiliate_login/
that's OK, it goes to the page as expected.
Now how I can make links work properly?

After this code:
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)/$ $1.php
put the below code
RewriteRule afiliate_login$ afiliate_login.php [L]
basically means that any request that comes to afiliate_login will show the data from afiliate_login.php
You got that problem because in your anchor tag you are using relative url. Since your url look like this without the file extension like, example.com/afiliate/afiliate_login/ , affiliate_login/ will be also considered as a directory and the html thinks that the anchor tag is in affiliate_login/ but it in reality it does not exists there so you get 404 error.

Previously the browser considered product_details.php as a file. but now its a folder, because its product_details/
one option available here is to update the link's like this
Log in
but its always suggested like the link below
Log in
