how to remove folder name from url using htaccess

by

Enable mod_rewrite and .htaccess through Apache config and then put this code in your .htaccess under DOCUMENT_ROOT directory:

RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule ^Portfolios/(.*)$ /$1 [L,NC,R=302]

Explanation: Above rule is matching URL pattern that starts with Portfolios and have somthing like /Portfolios/xyz/app and puts xyz/app in $1. It makes an external redirection to /$1 i.e. /xyz/app.

These are the flags used:

L  - Last Rule
NC - Ignore (No) Case comparison
R  - External redirection (with 302)

Once you verify it is working fine, replace R=302 to R=301. Avoid using R=301 (Permanent Redirect) while testing your mod_rewrite rules.
