remove query string from end of URL using .htaccess

Question

I\'m trying to remove string from the end of URL:

For example i have a structure like this:

http://sitename.com/category/first-category-name/?post_ty         


        

Answer 1

Just do something like this:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
# Make sure there is a query string
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} .
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule .*  /? [R=301,L]

Place a ? at the end to remove the query when present.
