Replace query string in URL using .htaccess-CodePudding

I have this in URL

/search/?query=anything

and I need this

/search/anything/

where "anything" is any thing in URL after. So all I want is to cut out this part

?query=

from the middle of the URL. How?

This probably is what you are looking for:

RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^query=(. )$
RewriteRule ^/?search/?$ /search/%1 [R=301,QSD,L]

RewriteRule ^/?search/(. )/?$ /search/?query=$1 [L]

This is a decision that my hosting provided:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^query=(.*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^/?search/?$ /search/%1 [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^/?search/(. )/?$ /search/?query=$1
