.htaccess problem on apache

I have a URL that looks like this: mywebsite.com/mypage?lang=fr

How can I remove the "?lang=fr" from the end with htaccess? I am not sure how to get it working.

 

Try using the following mod_rewrite rules:

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^lang=fr$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://mywebsite.com/mypage? [R=301,L]

Or, use the following mod_rewrite rules (removes the "lang=fr" query parameter from all requested URL-paths):

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]+\ /[^?]*\?(([^&]*)&)*lang=fr(&[\ ]*)?\ HTTP/
# accept optional parameters before 'lang=fr', but none after
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(([^&]*(&[^&]*)*)&)?lang=fr$ [OR]
# require parameters before and accept optional parameters after 'lang=fr'
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(([^&]*(&[^&]*)*)&)lang=fr((&[^&]*)*)$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://mywebsite.com/$1?%2%4 [R=301,L]

 

Hi,

Hi,

I've found this post while I was browsing the Web for a similar issue. Maybe someone here could help me solve it?

On my website, I have a few URL that look like this: website.com/page?param=1 and they all give a 404 error.

I don't want to remove the parameters but just ignore them to avoid the 404 error. How can I do this with htaccess?

Here is my current .htaccess file:

SetEnv PHP_VER 5
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ index.php

Code (markup):

Sincerely,
