Htaccess tip and tutorial 1

.htaccess files affect the directory in which they are placed and all sub-directories.

Removing Extensions

To remove the .php extension from a PHP file.

For example: yoursite.com/aboutus.php to yoursite.com/aboutus 

you have to add the following code inside the .htaccess file:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\s([^.]+)\.php [NC]

RewriteRule ^ %1 [R=301,L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f

RewriteRule ^ %{REQUEST_URI}.php [L]

</IfModule>
