htaccess using QSA returning 404

Question

I'm trying to direct a url for a blog post to a PHP page that takes a GET var using htaccess.

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^blog/post/(\w+)$ blog/post.php?title=$1 [QSA,L]

However, this just gives me a 404. I have confirmed that /blog/post.php?title=my-postis a valid url.

Try: `RewriteRule ^blog/post/([\w-]+)$ blog/post.php?title=$1 [QSA,L]` as you have hyphen in title — anubhava, Mar 16 '17 at 16:36

Since your title contains hyphens your rule should allow it:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^blog/post/([\w-]+)$ blog/post.php?title=$1 [QSA,L,NC]
