I'm looking for a way to remove trailing slash for all WordPress URL's.
I found similar answers like this one but it doesn't work when there's WordPress .htaccess rules before.
Here is my current WordPress .htaccess:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
It might be as simple as go to settings > permalinks in the wp admin and remove the trailing slash at the input box for custom structure
Here are the steps to remove trailing slashes site-wide. If you simply wish to remove the trailing slashes on posts only, skip to Step 2.
.htaccess, the code between lines # BEGIN WordPress & # END WordPress may get reset by WordPress. Avoid changing code between those lines. RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d.The following solution addresses those issues.
Add the following code before the # BEGIN WordPress line in your /.htaccess file. This redirects URLs with trailing slashes to URLs with no trailing slashes.
# Remove trailing slashes
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.+)/$ /$1 [R=301,L]
</IfModule>
As others have pointed out, you must also update your Permalinks (Settings -> Permalinks) to Custom Structure, and remove the trailing slash there. It removes the trailing slash on all your posts.
Try this:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteRule (.+)/$ $1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
If it doesn't work try this one:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteRule (.+)/$ http://www.domain.com/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# BEGIN WordPress section. (As @Yashvit pointed out, you should not edit the section between the # BEGIN/END WordPress comment markers because WP itself tries to maintain this code block and any custom directives are likely going to get overwritten. This is WP specific. Ordinarily, you would put the directive exactly as posted, unless you need to access directories (unlikely) then you need an additional condition to exclude directories.)To solve this trailing slash in WordPress URL problem, log in to your website admin panel -> go to Setting Tab -> click on Permalinks under Settings. It will open a page something like the below screen:
Now, check to verify the setting you have opted for the website URL structure. Make sure that you are not leaving a trailing slash in the URL structure. https://blog.techblogsearch.com/2018/11/29/guide-to-remove-trailing-slash-from-wordpress-url
If you don't want to touch .htaccess manually as it is sensitive. Do the following steps.
a. Under Settings tab click on Redirect Settings then Enable Trailing slashes redirect by clicking checkbox.
b. Under settings tab click on General settings then Choose Trailing slashes options from drop down
