Trying to make URL Rewrite in HtAccess to clean folder names

Question

I am actually trying to put an .htaccess file to have the "virtual" folder /evenement/ to point to /evenements-futur.php.

Here is what I have actually:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule /evenement$ /evenements-futur.php [L]

I know im not that far from the "Final Answer"...

Answer 1

I'm assuming you are adding the rule to your .htaccess file in your site's root directory. If yes, you just need to ditch the leading / as

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^evenement/?$ /evenements-futur.php [L]

The /? makes sure the rule works for both domain.com/evenement and with the terminating / as domain.com/evenement/ .
