htaccess issue with url rewriting

This is my htaccess file:

Options -Multiviews

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /

RewriteRule ^index.php$ / [L,R=301]
RewriteRule ^(.+)/index.php$ /$1/ [L,R=301]

This has successfully removed index.php but left ? before query string like

http://example.com/?type=1

How can I remove this '?' using htaccess

Also, how can I actually show above url as:

http://example.com/type/1

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^type/([^/.]+)/?$ index.php?type=$1 [L]

How it works

The RewriteRule ^type/([^/.]+)/?$ means that it's setting the URL of your path to type/5*/ *= whatever number is put in there.

Then the information given in the new url would then pass it to the index page. (index.php?type=$1 [L])

So for example, if you had type/1 it would forward that to index.php?type=1

I hope that this helps you and you now have a wider understanding of how it worked.

Try the following;

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^type/([^/]*)$ /index.php?type=$1 [L]
