.htaccess rewrite: Remove parameter from url

Question

I want to create subdomain from the first parameter of URL and then remove that parameter.

Desired result:

http://www.example.com/mystore          -> http://www.mystore.example.com

For this first I have created virtual host for mystore.example.com

Now I am trying to remove this mystore parameter from url.

I tried below changes in htaccess. Please check.

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/mystore/

Virtual Host:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin admin@gmail.com
    ServerName  mystore.example.local
    ServerAlias www.mytore.example.local

    DocumentRoot /var/www/html/Projectname/public/index.php/mystore

    ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
    CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined

</VirtualHost>

.htaccess: This file is inside "public/" folder. This project is in laravel.

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
<IfModule mod_negotiation.c>
Options -MultiViews -Indexes +FollowSymLinks
</IfModule>

RewriteEngine On

# Handle Authorization Header
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} .
RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]

# Redirect Trailing Slashes If Not A Folder...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (.+)/$
RewriteRule ^ %1 [L,R=301]

# Send Requests To Front Controller...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?:www\.)?example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^mystore(/.*)?$ http://www.mystore.example.com$1 [NC,L,R=301,NE]

</IfModule>

Answer 1

You may use this rule in site root .htaccess of www.example.com :

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} pragnastore\.sliderstock\.local$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^pragnastore(/.*)?$ http://pragnastore.sliderstock.local$1 [NC,L,R=301,NE]

Make sure to use this rule just below RewriteEngine On line.

Using this link , I solved it with Laravel routing changes. So for this, First I created virtual host and then do this changes in my routing web.php

Route::group(array('domain' => '{subdomain}.website.com'), function ($subdomain) {
    Route::get('/', 'controller@method');
});
