I have the below rewrite but I want to replace the URL without extension .php if the user types the URL with .php at last, how can I revise the below rewrite script?
# /m/yyy rule
RewriteRule ^m/([\w-]+)/?$ merchants/$1/index.php [L,NC]
# /m/yyy/abc rule
RewriteRule ^m/([\w-]+)/([\w-]+)$ merchants/$1/$2.php [L,NC]
# /m/yyy/abc/ rule
RewriteRule ^m/([\w-]+)/([\w-]+)/$ merchants/$1/$2/index.php [L,NC]
With your shown samples, please have your .htaccess file with following Rules. Please make sure to clear your browser cache before testing your URLs.
RewriteEngine ON
