I want to redirect to a custom URL if my visitors use any of the URL such as index.php?permalink=query
or if trailing slash is missing on the REQUEST_URI
I do not understand why this is not working for me. For url parameters, its working fine.
What am I doing wrong with the following code?
$requesturl = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
if($requesturl == "/index.php?permalink=".$query || substr($requesturl, -1) != '/') {
$redirect_requesturl = $baseurl."/".$query."/";
Header( 'HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently' );
Header( 'Location: ' . $redirect_requesturl );exit;
}
It is redirecting when a query comes as index.php?permalink=$query
where as when if URL does not contain trailing slash then its not redirecting.
My .htaccess as follow:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^([^/.]+)?/$ index.php?permalink=$1&%{QUERY_STRING}
I cannot force all URLs to have trailing slash using .htaccess as some of the important URLs does not contain trailing slash.
EDIT
Though now using the following in .htaccess works, but it adds trailing slash to css or js or font files such as otf / ttf / woff etc.,
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.(php|html?|jpg|gif|png|jpeg|pdf|doc|docx|css|js|xml|xls|xsl|txt|ico|eot|svg|ttf|woff|woff2|otf|flv|swf)$
RewriteRule ^(.*)([^/])$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1$2/ [L,R=301]
