SEO - .htaccess RewriteRule for KB

[Nullified]

Default:

# Knowledgebase
RewriteRule ^knowledgebase/([0-9]+)/[a-z0-9_-]+/[a-z0-9_-]+\.php$ ./knowledgebase.php?action=displayarticle&id=$1 [L,NC]
RewriteRule ^knowledgebase/([0-9]+)/([^/]*)$ ./knowledgebase.html?action=displaycat&catid=$1 [L,NC]
RewriteRule ^knowledgebase$ ./knowledgebase.php [L,NC]

 

I have written a custom script that acquires the article's category name and I would like to substitute that for the category id in the url.

Current KB link structure:

http://my.domain.com/knowledgebase/3/Shared-Web-Hosting/Dreamweaver-Site-Settings.php?article=3

 

I want to remove the 3 from the director structure, however to do so I must change the rewrite rule. I have tried like this:

RewriteRule ^knowledgebase/[a-z0-9_-]+/[a-z0-9_-]+\.php?article=+([0-9]+)$ ./knowledgebase.php?action=displayarticle&id=$4 [L,NC]

 

However, this does not work. Please advise.

Task Complete with a Rewrite Condition:

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (?:^|&)article=(\d+)(?:&|$)

RewriteRule ^knowledgebase/[a-z0-9_-]+/[a-z0-9_-]+\.php ./knowledgebase.php?action=displayarticle&id=%1 [L,NC]

Could you publish the .htaccess, somehow i could not fix that issue with the category and the number...

I did, it's in my above post.

I used the same Line, but i get a error.

You wrote about a custom script, that you wrote. Did you mean the .htaccess code lines, or is there anything else i need to do?

I was searching for that long time. ;-)

Did you found a solution?

 

With the .htaccess it did not work.

 

 

Any help would help.

 

Thanks a lot

Nop, i did not find a solution. ...

As i saw the knowledge Base on the Website of Nullifide, i guess he found a working solution

Would be happy to fix that too.
