Help On URL Rewrites

[Jayaram Ponnusamy]

Hi,

I made below rewriteRule to redirect URL from http://cmspweb1.com/sites/en_US/about/newsroom/2015/4 to http://cmspweb1.com/sites/en_US/about/newsroom?year=2015&month=4
But we want to keep URL (http://cmspweb1.com/sites/en_US/about/newsroom/2015/4) in the Address Bar, Internally Redirection Should happen.
Kindly please help me on this.

RewriteEngine On    # Turn on the rewriting engine
RewriteRule /sites/en_US/about/newsroom/([0-9]+)/([0-9]+) sites/en_US/about/newsroom?year=$1&month=$2 [R]

Thanks
Jayaram

Did you have a look at the RewriteRule Flags? You use the [R] flag which does exactly what you don't want to happen: it causes a HTTP redirect to be issued to the browser. If you don't want this, just remove this flag and use e.g. [NC,L] instead.

Hi,
I used [P] flag and address is coming as expected.  We need one solution also currently if user selects different year & month then again in the address bar it showing like http://cmspweb1.com/sites/en_US/about/newsroom?year=2015&month=4 . But we dont want to show query string in the Address bar.

Kindly please help me on this.

Thanks
Jayaram
