I just started doing some website work for a law firm whose website is kind of messy. They have files with multiple file extensions (html, php, txt) and some weird directory practices (eg one link will go to example.com/head-injuries/ which serves head-injuries/index.html, and the next one just links to example.com/car-crashes.html)
I was wondering how I could edit the .htaccess file to
I read some other threads where people had the same questions but weren't answered - and it looks like I'll need to distinguish some way of serving the correct content if there are 2 files with the same name but different extensions. This shouldn't be a problem with the website but if there needs to be a priority, I would prioritize php over html over txt.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
Have you tried just letting mod_negotiation take care of this for you?
Something like:
Options +Multiviews
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \ /+([^\?\ ]+)\.[a-z]+(\?|\ |$) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%1 [L,R]
Note that you'll run into issues if you have files like:
/page.html
and
/page.php
Because both will redirect to /page
and mod_negotiation won't know which one you're actually trying to request.
