    Hello,
    I'm using a PHP website where I want seo friendly URL.

    Example; www.mywebsite.com/about.php to www.mywebsite.com/about-us

    So, I'm using the following rewrite rules on nginx;
    rewrite ^/about$ /about.php last;

    That gives me www.mywebsite.com/about-us link but when I open www.mywebsite.com/about.php it opens the .php extension link too. Anyway I can force .php link to redirect to seo friendly URL?

    Can anyone help me with a better rewrite rules?

    Thank you

    rewrites aren't my specialty so not sure how to get around the internal redirect loop you'd have with about.php redirect unless you make a copy of about.php and name it about-us.php and then use

    Code:
    location ~ ^/about-us {
        include /usr/local/nginx/conf/php.conf;
        rewrite ^(.*)$ /about-us.php last;
}

location = /about.php {
        return 302 http://$server_name/about-us;
}
    or

    Code:
    location ~ ^/about-us {
        include /usr/local/nginx/conf/php.conf;
        try_files $uri /$uri /about-us.php;
}

location = /about.php {
        return 302 http://$server_name/about-us;
}
