Thanks for posting this. I’ve been looking for this a long time.

However, I’m having one problem : Any random, non-existing directory-url, like site.com/something/ is giving a 200 Found response code now. And it’s loading the index page.

A copy of my .htaccess file can be found here.

I’d be grateful for any advice.

Hi,
I am having a problem that you might easily be able to fix (I can’t as I don’t know much about Apache) because it is related to this post, if you could read my problem at

that would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hello im trying and trying something but i cant!

First i need to say that i have a rule on .htaccess on my root folder with the code:

Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
rewritecond %{http_host} www.mysite.com.ar [nc]
rewriterule ^(.*)$ http://mysite.com.ar/$1 [r=301,nc]

I say it because maybe it modify the new thing im trying to do.

I need a redirect from:
mysite.com.ar/forum/ --> mysite.com.ar/forum/index.php

Is this possible?

Thanks in advance

This code works like a charm. ONE PROBLEM: Now my 404 pages don’t seem to work. If I go to my root and type a page that doesn’t exist, sdfsdfwe.php, the browser acts like that page exists and serves my index instead.

Is there a way to keep my 404 working?
