I am using Magento 1.7.0.2

My Store admin URL is for example: http://www.mydomain.com/index.php/admin

I want to Rewrite this URL as : http://www.mydomain.com/admin

I have also tried "Admin Rewrites" Magento Extension, But it couldn't Help.

Currently I can't work directly in live website as it may lead to big trouble, So I am working in LOCALHOST now.

How Can I Achieve this ?

Thanks.

  • I do it with that: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10474740/how-to-remove-index-php-from-urls. Did you try it?? – vbak Nov 18 '13 at 07:45
  • Hello, vbak, there are 6 answers in your reference link, Can you say, about which answer you are talking about ? – LuFFy Nov 18 '13 at 07:58
  • Follow the below steps it will helps you. step 1: Goto to your site root folder and you can find the htaccess file there.Open it on text editor and find the line #Rewrite Base/ magento. Just replace it with Rewrite Base/ step 2: Then goto your admin panel and enable the Rewrites(set yes for Use Web Server Rewrites). You can find it at System->Configuration->Web->Search Engine Optimization. step 3: Then goto Cache management page (system cache management ) and refresh your cache and refresh to check the site. – vbak Nov 18 '13 at 08:00
  • Hello, vbak, there is only one .htaccess in my root folder of project. But it is blank. When i write 'Rewrite Base/' in localhost gets 500 Internal Server error. – LuFFy Nov 18 '13 at 09:03
  • Download a fresh copy of magento installation and take the htacces file.And then replace the line.Or search about the htaccess file online – vbak Nov 18 '13 at 09:13
  • `RewriteBase /` one word, space, slash. Otherwise you will get a 500 error due to bad syntax. Also you need a `Options +FollowSymLinks` and `RewriteEngine On` prior to that and also your web server needs the Rewrite DSO module loaded. If the DSO module isn't loaded, you will still get a 500 error. – Fiasco Labs Nov 18 '13 at 16:37

I got my solution from this following Blog Link:

Admin Rewrites (Magento Extension)

The just linked blog-post is referencing and explaining the usage of a Magento Extension called Admin Rewrites (Magento Extension).

The extension itself is available on Github and can be installed via Magento Composer Installer and/or Modman:

Alternatively it is also listed in Magento Conect (Magento Conect 2.0 Key).

Another method of doing this does involve modifying a core Magento file (which is a big no, no for upgrading purposes) but works all the same: http://www.code007.ro/magento-how-to-remove-index-php-from-admin-url/
