PHP - Quick Help With Friendly Seo Url Rewrite

Rather than me have all my pages as domain.com/index.php?id=1 etc I would like to pull the id's title from the database to create the URL so that they will look like domain.com/this-is-the-page-name/

Wordpress does it exactly how I want i just need a nudge in the right direction.

Anyone know how to do it or now of a guide to help me.

Thanks

I don't usually post on "introduce yourself" type areas of forums. But I'm glad I found this place. It's nice to find a community not overrun by trolls and attitudes (ie, Stackoverflow). That's getting sadly rarer lately.   I've been writing/editing PHP for the past 8+ years now, but I still find things I've never done before. Hey, we can't know it all!   Before PHP, I mostly did ASP -- all the way back to my NT4 days.   I see a lot of hosting-related questions around here -- one of my areas of expertise -- so I think I'll stick around to help others.

Here's my search form:

    <form action="search" method="get" enctype="multipart/form-data">
      <input type="text" name="string" maxlength="100" /><br /><br />
      <input type="submit" value="Search" />
    </form>

When I submit it, the URL is search.php?string=Bleh

What I would like is for the URL to be search/string/Bleh

I'm already doing this with some other variables, like search/tag/Bleh and search/author/Bleh, instead of search.php?tag=Bleh and search.php?author=Bleh. However, those ones are passed via a link, not a form.

Any ideas?

Can anyone please help me with my code.
I would like to display the data from another column instead of the id in the url generated by the scirpt.

Code: [Select]
<?php
include('/home/arts/public_html/shows/includes/config.db.php');
if ($link){
$rpp = 10; // results per page
$adjacents = 4;
$page = intval($_GET["page"]);
if(!$page) $page = 1;

$reload = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];

$sql = "select * from craft_shows WHERE venue_state='MD' order by start_date ";
$result = mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error());

// count total number of appropriate listings:
$tcount = mysql_num_rows($result);
    $date = strftime("%b %d, %Y", strtotime($row['start_date']));

echo "<table class='table7' width='100%' cellpadding='5' cellspacing='1'>";
echo "<tr><td>&nbsp;</td><td>Date</td><td>City</td><td>Show Name</td><td>Attendance</td></tr>";
echo "<tr><td colspan='7'><hr></td></tr>";

// count number of pages:
$tpages = ($tcount) ? ceil($tcount/$rpp) : 1; // total pages, last page number
$date = strftime("%b %d, %Y", strtotime($row['start_date']));
$count = 0;
$i = ($page-1)*$rpp;
while(($count<$rpp) && ($i<$tcount)) {
mysql_data_seek($result,$i);
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);

     $id = $row['id'];
echo "<tr><td>";
    echo "<a href=\"/show_submits/show_detail.php?id=$id\">Details</a>";
echo "</td><td>";
echo strftime('%b %d, %Y', strtotime($row['start_date']));
echo "</td><td>";
echo $row['venue_city'];
echo "</td><td>";
echo $row['show_name'];
echo "</td><td>";
echo $row['num_visitors'];
echo "</td></tr>";
$i++;
$count++;
}
echo "</table>";
echo "<br>";
// call pagination function:
include("pagination1.php");
echo paginate_one($reload, $page, $tpages, $adjacents);
}
?>

I'm currently runing an classifieds ads site, Php + Mysql (no frameworks) Basically i have the ads listing page (ads.php) and the ads details page (ad_detail.php) This is my current .htaccess:

# disable directory browsing
Options All -Indexes

ErrorDocument 400 /error.php
ErrorDocument 401 /error.php
ErrorDocument 403 /error.php
ErrorDocument 404 /error.php
ErrorDocument 500 /error.php
ErrorDocument 502 /error.php
ErrorDocument 504 /error.php

RewriteEngine on

RewriteRule ^(.*)-da([0-9]+)$ ad_detail.php?ad=$2
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.php [NC,L]

RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.php [NC,L]

The final result is something like this: www.mysite.com/this-is-the-ad-detail-da50555 (the number is the ad id)   What i need is to get this: www.mysite.com/ads/another-ad-detail-da50777 + What can i do in others urls to show like www.mysite.com/about/ instead of www.mysite.com/about (without the /)     I already tried this but doesn't work:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /

RewriteRule -da([0-9]+)/?$ ad_detail.php?ad=$1 [L,QSA]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/$1\.php -f [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.+?)/?$ $1.php [L]

Hey everyone,

I am attempting to find the best method to dynamically create seo friendly urls. This is my plan:

Original url:
Code: [Select]
http://www.example.com/index.php?comp=article&view=category&id=1
Make slug from the page's title and add it to url:
Code: [Select]
http://www.example.com/index.php?comp=article&view=category&id=1&/this-title-was-converted-to-a-slug
Finally remove "index.php?comp=article&view=category&id=1&/" from the url using .htaccess:
Code: [Select]
http://www.example.com/this-title-was-converted-to-a-slug
My questions a
Is there a better strategy/technique for accomplishing this? I have done a lot of research and this seems to be the most popular method.

Also since I couldn't do directly put a forward slash right after "&id=1", like so "&id=1/this-title-was-converted-to-a-slug",
I went ahead and added a "&" right after the id number, like so "&id=1&/this-title-was-converted-to-a-slug".
Is this the correct way of doing this?

Any suggestions are appreciated, thank you!

I am having trouble rewriting a url, I have taken on a project that to rebuild a site that is over 7 years old and the current url structure is "http://www.mysite.com/?page=home" this i find crazy who uses "?page="   anyway am now creating the site again using a better structure of http://www.mysite.com/home.htm

my problem is that the owner of the site has good google results with the current urls but wants them changing, and for the old ones to work too, i am trying to do this with .htaccess but the "?" in the url is causing massive problems with internal server errors.

can anyone help me please it driving me nuts.

Thanks in advance

Say my URL is http://www.example.com/catalog.php?category=hats&prodID=53

and I use Mod-rewrite to make it http://www.example.com/catalog/hats/53/

Can I still use $_GET['category'] to get the parameters? If so, how?
