i am new to .htaccess usage and tried to learn through online resources but however i write it the rules negate each other and am having a hard time writing a good enough .htaccess file below is my current .htaccess file which works fine for some pages like removing extensions and rewriting subdomains please check below

## Flag for GoDaddy

Options +MultiViews



RewriteBase /



## Remove extensions

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !=f

RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.php [NC,L]



## Redirect from extensions to non-extensions

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/+(.+?)\.php[\s?] [NC]

RewriteRule ^ /%1 [R=301,NE,L]



## Redirect Pages

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

RewriteRule ^post/([a-zA-Z0-9-/]+)$ /post.php?ps=$1

## Redirect non-existing pages to index.php

Options +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

RewriteRule . /index.php [L]

Above is the .htaccess am currently using and i got it through tutorials from youtube it works good and redirects files.php to files only which am happy with but
as you can see above this line RewriteRule ^post/([a-zA-Z0-9-/]+)$ /post.php?ps=$1 and the line below it are not passing through the ps but they show 404 page

i want the results to be domain.com/post-file-slug to go to exactly file domain.com/post-file.php?ps=post-slug-here for rule RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9-/]+)$ post-files.php?ps=$1 [L,QSA]

and

domain.com/post/post-slug-here to go to exactly domain.com/post.php?ps=post-slug-here for rule
RewriteRule ^post/([a-zA-Z0-9-/]+)$ /post.php?ps=$1

I was working on this for 2 days now hopefully fix it soon. Thanks

My Answer:
If you are trying to redirect PHP IDs properly with .htaccess on an OpenLiteSpeed server, you can use the following code in your .htaccess file:


RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^page/([0-9]+)$ page.php?id=$1 [L]


This code will redirect URLs like `example.com/page/123` to `example.com/page.php?id=123`. Make sure to replace `page.php` with the actual PHP file you want to redirect to, and adjust the regular expression `([0-9]+)` to match the pattern of your PHP IDs.

Additionally, make sure that your OpenLiteSpeed server is configured to allow the use of .htaccess files and mod_rewrite. You may need to enable the `RewriteEngine` directive in your server configuration.

If you continue to have issues with your .htaccess file, you may want to consult the OpenLiteSpeed documentation or seek assistance from a web developer or server administrator.
