Htaccess: add/remove trailing slash from URL

To add or remove a trailing slash from the end of a URL using an .htaccess file, you can use mod_rewrite to rewrite the URL.

To add a trailing slash, use the following code:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(.*)/$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1/ [L,R=301]

To remove a trailing slash, use the following code:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (.*)/$
RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ $1 [L,R=301]

Note that the RewriteRule directive will cause a redirect from the old URL to the new URL. If you want to avoid this redirect, you can remove the R=301 flag from the RewriteRule directive.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions.
