I have the following in my htaccess file:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
# Check to see if the URL points to a valid file
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
# Trailing slash check
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(.*)/$
# Add slash if missing & redirect
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1/ [L,R=301]
# Check to see if the URL points to a valid file
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
# Send to index.php for clean URLs
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]
This does work. It hides index.php, and it adds a trailing slash... except when there is a query string.
This URL:
http://example.com/some-page
gets redirected to:
http://example.com/some-page/
but this URL:
http://example.com/some-page?some-var=foo&some-other-var=bar
does not get redirected. I would like for the above to be sent to:
http://example.com/some-page/?some-var=foo&some-other-var=bar
I've reached the limits of my understanding of redirects with this. If you have a working answer, I would really appreciate a walkthrough of what every line is doing and why it works. Double bonus awesomeness for an explanation of why what I have right now doesn't work when there is a query string involved.
