This is the file that does all the work. It didn't quite work exactly as that for me, so here's what I did just in case you need it. add the follwoing into .htaccess under you site root ## set rewrite rule for author RewriteRule ^/projects/(.*) /projects?rest_of_url=/$1 Then add this to your projects file $_MY_PATH = explode("/",$PATH_INFO); array_shift($_MY_PATH); This will give you the array of elements that come after projects. i.e /projects/LovePeaceAndBananas/one $_MY_PATH[0] // this will be LovePeaceAndBananas $_MY_PATH[1] // this is one etc....
