.htaccess - rewrite rule, no clue -

pins?board=10000011

view_photos.php?album=10000011

10000011 being id dynamic, therefore no clue in title of question, not know how grab , use inside rewrite rule.

have tried with:

rewriterule ^([a-za-z-0-9-_.]+)/pins?board= $1/view_photos.php?album=$2

it seems don't know i'm doing i'm asking help.

you can't match against query string in rewrite rule. need use %{query_string} var in rewrite condition:

rewritecond %{query_string} ^board=(.*)$ rewriterule ^/?([a-za-z-0-9-_.]+)/pins$ /$1/view_photos.php?album=%1 [l,r=301]
