htaccess URL show's id and name only

Is there a way to remove view from the url for better seo?

from:http://mysite.com/view/2/video-name/
to:http://mysite.com/2/video-name/

also to redirect http://mysite.com/view/2/video-name/ to the new url http://mysite.com/2/video-name/

Hi,

This is possible, open your htaccess file

Find

RewriteRule ^view/(.*)/(.*)/ view_video.php?id=$1 [L,QSA]

replace with

RewriteRule ^(\d+)/(.*)/ view_video.php?id=$1 [L,QSA]
RewriteRule ^view/(.*)/(.*)/ view_video.php?id=$1 [L,QSA]

then you have to change view video url in your tpl files.

from:http://mysite.com/view/2/video-name/

to:http://mysite.com/2/video-name/

Thanks

thanks
but when i go to http://mysite.com/view/2/video-name/ do not redirect me to http://mysite.com/2/video-name/
This means that i will have 2 links for the video and its bad for seo.

Hi,

Open htaccess file

find

RewriteRule ^view/(.*)/(.*)/ view_video.php?id=$1 [L,QSA]

replace

RewriteRule ^view/(.*)/(.*)/ video_redirect.php?id=$1 [L,QSA]

download the attached zip file, extract and upload file into your vshare directory.

if any problem please open a support ticket at http://helpdesk.buyscripts.in/open.php.
