RewriteRule ^$ /en/hotel/ [R,L]
#redirects / to /en/hotel/

RewriteRule ^([a-z]{2})/([^/\.]+)/$ /index.php?lang=$1&page=$2 [L]
#rewrites URLs like /en/pagename/

So far so good, when pointing to www.hotelteti.com you'll see www.hotelteti.com/en/hotel/ and the server will use the page at /index.php?lang=en&page=hotel

 

Now the one that causes the "conflict":

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^hotelteti\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.hotelteti.com/$1 [R=301,L]
#it redirects the no-www to the www version of the website.

 

It works, but when pointing to http://hotelteti.com'>http://hotelteti.com, you'll see www.hotelteti.com/index.php?lang=en&page=hotel in the bar, not www.hotelteti.com/en/hotel/

 

Try it yourself:

http://www.hotelteti.com (works as it should)

http://hotelteti.com (displays the ugly URL)

Anyone?

Try putting the conflicting rewrite code at the top of the htaccess to process it first

I can't believe it was that easy... I'm relieved. Thank you very much!

No problem

I just found this topic as i was having the exact same issues. Adding "../" to everything did the job perfectly!

 

Thanks
