Hello,
i was wondering how to setup a .htaccess file and where to put it on the server?? I want to use forceType to recognize files for use with PHP cause I am setting up clean urls.. Please let me know and I appreciate the help.

Hi,

It seems that you want to convert .php extension files to .html extension files. Just add following lines to your .htaccess file ...

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .html

Hello,

The .htaccess file will automatically be created once your domain will host on Linuxserver. You do not need to create it manually. You can find it inside the 'public_html' folder. You just need to place the code
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .html there to perform it.

I think I am on the windows server not the linux box... I tried creating my own .htaccess and it didn't work.. and what I want to do it to make a url that looks like this:

example.com/index.php

to

example.com/index

without actually removing the php file.... I just wanted to see if there was a way from stopping apache from displaying file extensions.

Windows uses IIS as a web server not apache, also there is nothing like .htaccess file in windows. Looking forward if there is any way you can do this in windows.
