PHP Question
htaccess clean urls with with sub folder
I'm trying to create clean urls on my gallery website.
<http://sloanegalleryofart.com>
I was able to clean up general navigation. However, run in some hardcore difficulties while trying to configure sub folders
Curretnly my htaccess looks like so
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^sloanegalleryofart.com$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.sloanegalleryofart.com$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/
RewriteRule (.*) /$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^about/$ /about/about.php
RewriteRule ^contact/$ /contact/contact.php
RewriteRule ^shows/$ /shows/shows.php
RewriteRule ^artists/$ /artists/artists.php
RewriteRule ^books/$ /books/books.php
If I try to navigate from artists page sloanegalleryofart.com/artists to each individual artist it looks like so sloanegalleryofart.com/artists/artist.php?artist=Gleb-Bogomolov
When idealy i want it to be sloanegalleryofart.com/artists/Gleb-Bogomolov/ . Just cut out the whole " artist.php?artist= " out of the url
Thank you in advance !
