Php mod_rewrite is not working properly

Question

I\'ve a php page with following link structure:

http://localhost/wisper/businesspage.php?profile=creativeartbd

So I\'m trying to convert this

Answer 1

This ruleset should work for you:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteCond $1 !^businesspage.php
RewriteRule ^wisper/(.*?)$ wisper/businesspage.php?profile=$1 [QSA,L]

Please note the RewriteCond in the 6th line: it tells mod_rewrite not to rewrite the wisper/businesspage.php, thus avoiding loops.

Answer 2

You are doing it wrong try this

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^wisperpage/(.*?)$ wisper/businesspage.php?profile=$1 [QSA,L]

You need to change the first uri segment because rewriting wisper/creativeartbd to wisper/businesspage.php?profile=$1 will creates the infinite loop
