htaccess rewrite URL php parameters

Question

I am trying to rewrite a specific PHP file GET parameter but cant seem to get things to work.

I want to rewrite http://www.example.com/meeting.php?ref=y0fpjXrrGP

Answer 1

You don't need to add that to .htaccess, if your URL is inside your Wordpress, you need to add them to the rewrite URL

Check this: How to create custom URL routes?

Hope it helps.

Answer 2

Just use this in your .htaccess file:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^meeting/([^/]*)$ /meeting.php?ref=$1 [L]

It will leave you with the URL: http://www.example.com/meeting/y0fpjXrrGP

Make sure you clear your cache when testing this.
