将domain.tld / index.php重定向到domain.tld（删除index.php，然后删除301）

Question

I have a Magento installation and was wondering how can I redirect domain.tld/index.php to domain.tld?

I want to remove index.php and then 301 back to root. I have a lot of old links which is giving me duplicate content and ugly urls etc. Example of old link:

domain.tld/index.php?controller=best_sales

In the .htaccess, I have the following, and it's not working

RewriteRule .* index.php [L]

Thanks :)

Edit:

Thanks both of you for your answers, but I still can't get it to work. I'm getting 404 - Not Found, when trying to make any changes.

This is my full .htaccess, maybe there are some errors or miss-configurations that doesn't make it work?

RewriteEngine on

// SEND TO INDEX.PHP FOR CLEAN URLS
#RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php? /$1 [L,QSA]
#REWRITE EVERYTHING ELSE TO INDEX.PHP    
RewriteRule .* index.php [L]

Answer 1

Keep this rule as your very first rule below RewriteEngine On line to remove index.php from your URL:

DirectoryIndex index.php

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /index\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*?)index\.php$ /$1 [L,R=302,NC,NE]

Answer 2

I am assuming that without any rules it already displays your content for domain.tld/?controller=best_unicorns . If the url before the query string ends with 'index.php' , you want to redirect to that url without index.php. In fact, the part between the domain name and the query string only contains 'index.php'.

You'll need to use the R (redirect) flag for this:

RewriteRule ^index\.php$ / [R,L]

Delete your other attempt. If this rule works, change the flags to [R=301,L] to make it permanent. This way both browsers and search engines know to look in just one place.
