<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    <IfModule mod_negotiation.c>

    RewriteEngine On
    
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d [OR]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f

</IfModule>

@liaotzukai Could you explain what each rule do, please?

Its working thank you,it saved my time @HeroGuys

hello
@liaotzukai this code works very well , but when we can access site with site.com and site.com/public ! how can we disable view in public folder? i want only user can view site from site.com URL not site.com and site.com/public

Hello
@liaotzukai everything is working fine, when i past the url with /public also able to access the normal way. is it any issues, and i need to block the .env file, so i added one more line to the above .htaccess. on the bottom line of " RewriteRule ^ server.php ". i added " RewriteRule ^.env - [F,L,NC] ".
Can you tell me the solution for block the link if we put additional uri called /public to the normal url

My laravel does not see css, js, etc files and routes

THIS WORKS FOR ME IM USING LARAVEL 5.6

1.- I CREATE A NEW FILE IN MY ROOT DIRECTORY OF MY PROJECT CALL IT ".htaccess"

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    <IfModule mod_negotiation.c>
        Options -MultiViews
    </IfModule>
    
    RewriteEngine On
    
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d [OR]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f
    RewriteRule ^ ^$1 [N]

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (\.\w+$) [NC]
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ public/$1 

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteRule ^ server.php

</IfModule>

2.- I pasted this piece of code on my new file, refresh the browser and thats it.

Whats the problem: I had the problem: subdomain.domain.com/name-project/public/

The result I want ♥: And it woks! I have the solution The result: subdomain.domain.com/name-project/

Thanks @liaotzukai ♥

@liaotzukai Do you know how this code would look like for OpenLiteSpeed web server?
There are many guides that recommend enabling .htaccess support inside OLWS configuration, but I would like to avoid using access files, and add the rules directly inside virtual host config file.
There are not many online guides regarding Laravel and OLWS...
