.htaccess redirect variable to friendly link - many redirects

Question

I have a problem with htaccess redirecting a variable to clean url.

the code:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule (.*) index.php?page=$1 [R]

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^page=about$ 
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.url.com/about? [R=301,L]

i just want to redirect this: "?page=about" to this: "/about"

and with the code above give me to many redirects...

Thanks for the time to look at this.

So i have tried your code in an empty directory on local server.

This works fine:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine on

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule (.*) index.php?page=$1 [R]

    RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^page=about$ 
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.url.com/about? [R=301,L]
</IfModule>

But not when i comment out this line of code RewriteEngine on. So try your code with this piece of line and it should work fine.

Sorry but it sill go to error page "ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS" – Fred Mj Jun 15 '17 at 13:59
could you paste you complete .htaccess code? Also, check for any other redirects that is taking place after the above one. – Anurag Jun 16 '17 at 04:26

Thats the complete code.

#Rewrite settings
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !on
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^url.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.url.com/$1 [L,R=301]

#Remove index.php from url
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /(.*)index\.php($|\ |\?)
RewriteRule ^ /%1 [R=301,L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)$ index.php?p=$1 [L]

#RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^p=about$ 
#RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.url.com/about? [R=301,L]

RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} libwww-perl.* 
RewriteRule .* ? [F,L]

This piece of code is commented because like this does not work:

#RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^p=about$ 
#RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.url.com/about? [R=301,L]
