I know there are many topics. I tried them many times, but it doesn't work.

What do I want?

Instead of example.com/en/file.php, users see only example.com/en/file.

My .htaccess file:

DirectoryIndex index.php index.html

RewriteEngine on
*RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /$1.php*


ErrorDocument 404 /index.php

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example\.com$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.example\.com$
RewriteRule ^ru\/index\.php$ "http\:\/\/example\.com\/ru\/" [R=301,L]

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example\.com$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.example\.com$
RewriteRule ^en\/index\.php$ "http\:\/\/example\.com\/en\/" [R=301,L]

etc. for every language

  1. What do I have to add to hide extensions?

  2. After it works, should I use links between pages as "file.php" or only "file"?

  • Check the RewriteRule syntax - it's the opposite. The first is "what to rewrite", the second is "the result of rewriting" Commented Apr 16, 2013 at 21:50

    This has to be the most asked question that I have seen on SO, it does not hurt to perform a search prior to posting Commented Apr 16, 2013 at 22:00
  • This is like hacking, you are always better off using a simple PHP framework. Try CodeIgniter or CakePHP if you would like to give it a shot :) Commented Apr 16, 2013 at 22:21

Perhaps something like this. Modify as you see fit for more specific pattern matching.

RewriteRule ^(?:(.*)/)?(.*)$ $2.php?lang=$1

Rewrites:

/en/fun => /fun.php?lang=en

/ru/fun => /fun.php?lang=ru

/fun => /fun.php?lang=

DirectoryIndex index.php index.html    

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.+)$      $1.php     [L,QSA]

In your links, don't use extensions.

adding: RewriteEngine on RewriteRule ^(.+)$ $1.php [L] //doesn't works: The requested URL /q_insert_city_image was not found on this server. Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Not Found The requested URL /en/things_to_visit was not found on this server. I don't understand why it doesn't work =(
Did a little test and it worked. Make sure that you can use mod_rewrite, and that /en/things_to_visit.php really exists.
hmmmm, may be it is not enabled.. I can't see it here: incinqueterre.com/1.php in phpinfo. I thought that "url_rewriter.tags" was enough... Will think tomorrow, now I have to leave
but with "hide index.php" it works, so its enabled... :/ ohhhh

Fixed by adding one line:

RewriteEngine on
**Options -Multiviews**
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.+)$      $1.php     [L,QSA]
