I was hired to maintain a website running on Prestashop 1.6. The problem is, the admin is working fine, but I can't access any page on the site but the homepage.
Currently, the shop's URL in the database is : localhost
The physical_uri is : /folder/ that's where Prestashop's content is stored.
For example, when I navigate in localhost/folder/videos, I'm redirected to localhost/index.php, and I can't figure out why...
The previous developer created a set of RewriteRules in htaccess, here's one example :
RewriteRule ^videos/([-0-9a-zA-Z]+)-m([0-9]+)$ /index.php?controller=media&id=$2 [QSA,L]
After this set of rules is the rest of the file, generated by Prestashop.
I tried multiple solutions like setting a RewriteBase but nothing seems to work...
If anybody has an idea, It'll be nice ! Thx !
if you do not plan to use your installation in subfolder on production, I guess for you be better (to avoid similar issues next time) use local domain,
e.g. by adding in hosts file 127.0.0.1 myshop.dev and configure webserver virtual domain root to your "folder" folder, just move "folder" to one level with localhost root.
So you will can to work with myshop.dev/video without cnanges in rewrite rules as result.
