I was creating a demo blog URL with my old .htaccess code. Everything works fine with the .htaccess code but when I use the ode to convert my ugly URL to SEO friendly URL then there it always gives 500 internal server error
I've searched various blogs on google also i watched youtube channels and did exactly as they did, it works fine on their machine but it gives 500 internal error on mine.
Following is my .htaccess
code
RewriteEngine On
