HTACCESS: Cut Slash and And-Character (/&) from URL
Question by Mail Request | 2017-03-26 at 13:17
How is it possible to remove a slash and a following &-character from a web address? Constantly, I get requests to my website with "/&" attached to the URL. However, those pages are not existing and therefore I always get lots of 404 error messages. Thanks in advance!

You can try the following Rewrite Rule in your HTACCES-file:
RewriteRule ^(.+)/&$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]This should redirect URLs like "askingbox.com/test/&" to "askingbox.com/test". If you additionally also wants to redirect URLs without &-character, you can use both of the following RewriteRules:
RewriteRule ^(.+)/&$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L] RewriteRule ^(.+)/$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]These rules are caring about that "askingbox.com/test/" as well as "askingbox.de/test/&" will be redirected to "askingbox.de/test".
