  • what do the cfg have to look like for seo url?

    Example: instead of

    index.php?page=home

    so

    /page/home

    server {
        listen       80;
        server_name  riekmedia.dev;
    
        root   /var/www/website;
        index  index.php index.html index.htm;
    
       location / {
        if ($request_uri ~ ^/(.*)\.html$) {
            return 302 /$1;
            }
        }
    
        error_page   500 502 503 504  /50x.html;
        location = /50x.html {
            root   /var/www;
        }
            location ~ \.php$ {
            fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
            fastcgi_pass   unix:/var/run/php/php8.0-fpm.sock;
            fastcgi_index  index.php;
            fastcgi_param  SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
            include        fastcgi_params;
        }
    
    }
    

    @riekmedia Can you provide more information as to the technology you are using to present this site - for example, WordPress, Joomla, Ghost, etc ?

    Thanks

    Self-written cms the url only needs to be from z.b index.php?page=home to /page/home

    in Apache woked this for .htaccess

    Options +FollowSymLinks
    RewriteEngine on
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule ^/?site/([a-zA-Z0-9]+)$ /index.php?site=$1

    @riekmedia Something like this should work (obviously it needs modification to match your environment)

    location / {
        try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;
    }
    location /my-app {
        try_files $uri $uri/ /my-app/file.php?arg=$uri&$args;
    }
    location ~ \.php$ {
        try_files $uri =404;
    }

    @riekmedia are you using this as a guide instead of the snippet I provided ?

  • I had tried both and neither worked

  • I had tried both and neither worked

    @riekmedia Is there any way I can get access to the server to investigate, or perhaps get a copy of the source code to fix locally ? (I’ll also need the database)

    @phenomlab Which database do they mean? I’m not talking about Nodebb but about the web server nginx. I had included the config.

    default.conf for Domain riekmedia.dev

    server {
        listen       80;

    @riekmedia I mean a copy of the database that the CMS connects to, plus the source code. It’s hard to provide a fix without it.

  • @riekmedia I mean a copy of the database that the CMS connects to, plus the source code. It’s hard to provide a fix without it.

    @phenomlab there is no cms yet, I program the whole thing first. It is now just a small php website with subpages that are accessed via index.php?page=aboutus z.b. I just have to change the webserver now that it converts dynamic urls to seo urls

    example

    riekmedia.dev/index.php?page=aboutus

    new url

    riekmedia.dev/page/aboutus

    with apache you could solve this via htaccess with Rewrite Rule

    example

    # BEGIN RIEK-MEDIA
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d 
    RewriteRule ^/?page/([a-zA-Z0-9]+)$ /index.php?page=$1
    </IfModule>
    # END RIEK-MEDIA

    @riekmedia Ah, ok. That makes sense. I can probably replicate this fairly easily. Leave it with me. Hopefully should be back to you at some point later today.

    @phenomlab that seems to work. Or unclean?

    ####Please add below lines for SEO Friendly URLs
    	location / {
