htaccess remove .php, .html and trailing slash

Question

i am trying to remove .php .html and traling slash from url using htaccess,how ever this code working fine for php but not for html and trailing slash

For PHP

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^GET.*index\.php [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/system/.* [NC]
RewriteRule (.*?)index\.php/*(.*) /$1$2 [R=301,NE,L]
# Directs all EE web requests through the site index file
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]

For HTML

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} index.html
RewriteRule ^(.*)index.html$ /$1/ [R=301,L]

RedirectMatch 301 ^(.*)/$ /$1 is working for me for trailing slash — Rakhi

Have it this way:

# externally redirect /dir/file.php to /dir/file and remove index
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/+(.*?/)?(?:index)?(.*?)\.(?:html?|php)/?[\s?] [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%1%2 [R=301,L,NE]

# remove trailing slash
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s(.+?)/+[?\s]
RewriteRule ^(.+?)/$ /$1 [R=301,L]

# internally add php extension
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/$1.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.+?)/?$ $1.php [L]

# internally add html extension
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/$1.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.+?)/?$ $1.html [L]

Hi thanks for reply,here the index.html url not working for me when i enter url like mywdesign.com/index.html/web-dev-ecommerce-services it shows page not found,also when i use url like mywdesign.com/index.php/web-dev-ecommerce-services in browser it goes to mywdesign.com//web-dev-ecommerce-services, so double slashes comes. can you please help?

See the update it will fix // problem. However for /index.html/web-dev-ecommerce-services as per requirements it will redirect to /web-dev-ecommerce-services is this not happening? OR do you want to leave it as /index.html/web-dev-ecommerce-services itself?

hi thanks,index.php and trailing slash is working fine now,but index.html not going its not redirecting to /web-dev-ecommece-service however same thing isworking fine with php but in index.html case its not working

That's why I think it is not good idea to strip index.html from /index.html/web-dev-ecommerce-services btw this is really a strange URL. I have seen similar scheme with index.php but not with index.html

Rakhi Over a year ago

the seo guy says when we write in index.html between url it should strip automatically.this is something happens in many websites but here when i write index.php strips using your code but index.html not
