CLEAN URLS

 

How to remove index.php, have clean routes and remove site.

Make sure you have this at main.php or web.php

‘urlManager’ => [
‘enablePrettyUrl’ => true,
‘showScriptName’ => false,
‘class’ => ‘yii\web\UrlManager’,
‘rules’ => [
‘<alias:\w+>’ => ‘site/<alias>’,
],

Create an .htaccess file under web folder. Use the ff:

RewriteEngine on

# If a directory or a file exists, use the request directly
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
# Otherwise forward the request to index.php
RewriteRule . index.php
