how to hide id = from url using htaccess file-CodePudding

I need the url from

localhost/project/category?c=electronics

localhost/project/category/electronics

I have tried

RewriteRule ^category/([^/\.] )?$ /category.php?c=$1  [L]
RewriteRule ^category/ ?$ /category.php?c=$1  [NC,L]

CodePudding user response：

With your shown samples and attempts please try following htaccess rules. Please do clear your browser cache before testing your URLs.

RewriteEngine ON
RewriteBase /
##External redirect to url change in browser.
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/(project/category)\.php\?c=(\S )\s [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%1/%2? [R=301,L]

##Internal rewrite to category.php in backend.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^/]*)/([^/]*)/([^/]*)/?$ $1/$2.php?c=$3 [QSA,L]

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /

RewriteRule ^project/category/([0-9a-z] )$ /project/category?c=$1 [L]

Why is "project/" missing in your original try ?

You have to specify the full path. You can try this simple rewriteRule wich should works.
