Some help with Rewrite rules in Apache/Nginx

Caster

Pls help.

I am trying to do this :

example.com/hello.php

It will actually forward/rewrite to :
example.com/index.php?id=hello.php

Looking to do it both on apache/nginx and using Cloudflare too [?].

Brad

A single file or was that an example for many others?

that was example basically.

example.com/<file_name>.<extension>

gets :

example.com/index.php?id=<file_name>.<extension>

Instead of trying to pass the request via query string, you could just pass it to index.php and handle it with PHP. Try this answer - http://stackoverflow.com/a/8458021

For Nginx use try_files:

try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;

and handle the request with PHP.
