.htaccess RewriteRule Redirect

Question

I have two websites, xyz.com and testsite.com (just for example). I've linked my domain xyz.com to testsite.com/content. My testsite.com/content features a .htaccess which features the following code meant to remove the .php extension from the URL:

Options -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.php [NC,L]

It works perfectly fine on the source website; however, it shoots off a 404 error in the xyz.com and references /content/content/login instead of /content/login in the testsite.com. How do I fix this?

Answer 1

Add RewriteBase / to the code so like this

Options -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.php [NC,L]

If it doesn't work like this, try adding the rewritebase under the options or at the top of the htaccess.
