URL rewrite with variables using .htaccess

Question

I'm trying to rewrite a url from the website that I made but I'm not an expert using .htaccess. Basically I'm trying to do this:

Localhost test environment ( WAMP ):

http://127.0.0.1/project/index.php?p=home&l=en

into this:

http://127.0.0.1/project/en/home/

I made something like this but I know it is not correct:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^$2/$1/$ /index.php?p=$1&l=$2 [L]

What's the correct way to achieve this?

You can't use $1, $2, etc. in the pattern. You must use parenthesis like so :

RewriteRule ^(.+)/(.+)/$ /index.php?p=$2&l=$1

In the rewrited URL, $1 and $2 correspond respectively to the parenthesis in the order they appear in the regular expression.

I'm testing on my localhost using wamp and nothing works. The rewrite module is enabled

Do you get an error 500 or it's simply not working ? Could you try a basic rewrite like RewriteRule test.php index.php to see if the problem comes from your rule or from the module.

also You can try with this following

RewriteRule ^([0-9A-Za-z]+)/([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)$ /index.php?p=$2&l=$1 [L,QSA]
