Is there a shorter version of this kind of filter query?
I'm trying to create SEO friendly urls from long filter queries but I have very hard times to understand how mod rewrite conditions and expressions works.
I have this filter url (this is the longest possible variation, generated by php)
mydomain.com/en/items/CategoryID(INT)/Category_name(STR)/Sub_category_ID(INT)/Sub_category_name(STR)/list-type=(STR)/item-type=(STR)/difficulty=(INT)/author=(INT or STR)/page=(INT)
This varies upon different circumstances (filters activated or not)
For example, it can be:
mydomain.com/en/items/page=2
(if only page is selected) or
mydomain.com/en/items/1/category-ones-name/page=2
(if category AND page is selected)
.. and so on
so far I have TONS of repetitive lines in my .htacess file for every possible variation, just like these: (by following the example above)
RewriteRule ^en/items/page=([0-9]+)$ index.php?page=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^en/items/([0-9]+)/([A-Za-z0-9-]+)/page=([0-9]+)$ index.php?category=$1&page=$3 [L]
..and so on,
which (I think) is a very poor implementation. There must be a much more cleaner and more professional way to solve this problem. (The order of these filtering variables are fixed but the presence of them is not.)
Is there a way to make a "simple" "one line" condition which can handle this super long url?
Thanks in advance!
