mod_rewrite: remove query string from URL?

by

This should do it:

RewriteEngine    On
RewriteCond      %{QUERY_STRING}    ^page=1$
RewriteRule      (.*)               $1?     [R=permanent]

Line by line:

  1. You turn on the rewriting functionality.
  2. You specify as a condition (“if statement”) that the query string has to be exactly page=1 for the following rules to apply.
  3. Then you specify a rule that says substitute the entire path (.*) with itself ($1), but make the query string empty (?), and make the result a permanent redirect (301).

If you want the redirect to be temporary (302) then you can just remove the =permanent part. Moved Temporarily is the default for the R flag.
