Apache rewrite rule with parameters?

Question

I have the following URL:

http://domain.com/index.php?m=feedback&cSubject=My Subject

I want to have a rewrite rule so that the following:

http://domain.com/feedback?Subject=My Subject

maps to the previous url. Heres my rule at the moment:

RewriteRule ^feedback?Subject=(.*)$ index.php?m=feedback&cSubject=$1

Doesn't seem to be working tho! Any ideas?

Query Strings are not parsed by Apache Mod_Rewrite, but there is a workaround. Try this

RewriteRule ^feedback/?$ index.php?m=feedback&c%{QUERY_STRING} [NC,L]

That's what I was missing for my dynamic search queries. Thanks, Clops! – Ilia Ross May 20 '14 at 20:04
how would you get rid of the necessary `?` at the end? it doesn't work if i just remove it – user151496 Apr 15 '16 at 15:01

You can use RewriteCond statement to do exactly what you want:

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} Subject=(.*)
RewriteRule ^feedback$ index.php?m=feedback&cSubject=%1 [L]
