htaccess redirect hiding the php extension or pass a parameter

Question

I'm using a main index.php file to handle the most of requests, so my basic .htacess looks like this one:

RewriteEngine on RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteRule ^(.+)$ /index.php?page=$1 [L]

But i've got some requests (like /signin or /signout) that needs to be handled directly from .php file with the same name (/signin.php and /signout.php).

So my .htaccess rules needs to be: "if %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php does not exists redirect to /index.php?page=$1 else redirect to %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php".

How can i do this?

By using a RewriteCond analog to the ones you already have in place to check whether or not an existing file is matched and a corresponding RewriteRule. — C3roe

Replace your code with this:

RewriteEngine on RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f RewriteRule ^ %{REQUEST_URI}.php [L,NC] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php !-f RewriteRule ^(.+)$ /index.php?page=$1 [L,QSA]

This will send everything to /index.php that is not a valid file or directory and doesn't have a matching .php existing in your filesystem.

It doesn't work. When i check an exsists file i got 404 not found error (/signin not redirect to signin.php).

you could handle this in your index.php, just redirect every call on index.php. There you can readin all parameters given in URL.

$aParams = explode("/", $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"]);

Now you can handle all parameters and redirect if you need to.
