Apache - rewrite images to php file with .htaccess

Question

I\'m looking for a way to rewrite all my image requests from one folder into some.php file, while preserving the original image url (or par

Answer 1

Considering what you mention in the comments and that the previous rules didn't work, I edited the message, this is what i have now.

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/(.*)\.jpg [NC]
RewriteRule ^folder/img/([\w]*\.jpg)$ folder/some.php?img=img/$1[R=301,L]

If folder is al variable, you can change that for (\w*) and add the reference in the right side of the rule.

Hope this helps.

It sounds like you you want the filename of the image in the url to be included in the new php url, not the entire url. So something like:

RewriteRule ^folder/img/(.*[.]jpg)$ /folder/some.php?filename=$1

Enable mod_rewrite and .htaccess through httpd.conf and then put this code in your .htaccess under DOCUMENT_ROOT directory:

Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
# Turn mod_rewrite on
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

RewriteRule ^(folder)/(img/[^.]+\.jpg)$ $1/some.php?img=$2 [L,QSA,NC]

Make sure:

• .htaccess is enabled
• mod_rewrite is enabled
• Your URL is http://example.com/folder/img/test.jpg
