Pretty URLs

Apache HTTP

The framework ships with a public/.htaccess file that is used to allow URLs without index.php. If you use Apache to serve your Orchestra Platform application, be sure to enable the mod_rewrite module.

If the .htaccess file that ships with Orchestra Platform does not work with your Apache installation, try this one:

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]

Nginx

On Nginx, the following directive in your site configuration will allow "pretty" URLs:

location / {
	try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;
}

Of course, when using Homestead, pretty URLs will be configured automatically.
