Htaccess Redirect Generator

When creating a Hypertext Access file, problems usually prevent the site from working. Most errors occur due to extra spaces or missing commas. For this reason, We decided to make a tool that will help everyone without knowledge of the basics of setting up servers and creating the right htaccess for any CMS.

What is .htaccess?

.htaccess is an additional configuration file for the Apache web server and similar servers. It allows you to set different parameters and permissions for running the web server in separate directories.

This .htaccess file will perform the following tasks.

• Manages the configuration of the Apache web server;
• Enabling/disabling functionality and many other features;
• Handling redirects with and without www
• Protecting user information and passwords
• Can block or gain access to an IP address
• It can redirect users to other websites or links

There is an extensive list of other controls that the file can perform .htaccess. We can't change the file name or file extension. The Apache server will only consider the file name and extensions (.htaccess) in the root directory and ignore all other terms or extensions.
