Match Question Mark in mod_rewrite rule regex

Question

I am looking to rewrite urls with multiple substrings. One substring is being requested as a subdirectory, while any others are requested as normal query string parameters.

Answer 1

The query is not part of the URL path and thus cannot be processed with the RewriteRule directive. This can only be done with the RewriteCond directive (see %{QUERY_STRING}).

But as Chad Birch already said it suffices th set the QSA flag to automatically get the original requested query appended to the new URL.
