Topic: Mod Rewrite

[mel150]

hi, I am a complete newbie, and have no idea how to do this. We have Apache 2.4 running on Linux.

We have a blog system. The blog are numbered, like this:
https://www.magickitchen.com/blog/?no=19
https://www.magickitchen.com/blog/?no=18
https://www.magickitchen.com/blog/?no=03

I call those into an html page, using:
<!--#include virtual="/cart/cgi/mini_blog.cgi?no=19" -->

But the pages are named in a user-friendly manner, like
https://www.magickitchen.com/blog/2018/4/what-is-net-neutrality-and-why-should-you-care.html

https://www.magickitchen.com/blog/2018/4/best-brand-based-april-fools-gags-2018.html


https://www.magickitchen.com/blog/2018/6/summer-bonding-with-grandkids.html

year/month/name-of-article.html

Can someone help me out with a mod rewrite, or is that asking too much? Thanks so much for looking at this question.

How do you like to match the url with a name to a number? if your cgi can do that you might rewrite the whole blog to the cgi. The urls then must be stored in the programming or in a database.

Thanks, that makes sense. We hired someone to do it, but I will suggest this, since it's still not working properly.
