Dear all,
in order to have prettier URLs I have decided to move my joomla from
/web/ to /, but I want old URLs to transparently redirect.
I am struggling how to do this.
First I though of something like
location /web {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;
}
but this obviously did not work as the arguments passed to index.php
still contain the /web/ part , which would have to go.
So I tried instead:
location / {
rewrite ^/web/(.*)$ /$1;
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;
}
thinking that the first line would modify the URI, taking away the /web/
part so that in the next line the changed uri would be fed to the
try_files command.
But this only resulted in 404s.
Can someone enlighten me on where I am going wrong with this?
Thanks a lot in advance,
Johannes
