htaccess rewrite URL php parameters

I am trying to rewrite a specific PHP file GET parameter but cant seem to get things to work.

I want to rewrite http://www.example.com/meeting.php?ref=y0fpjXrrGP so it is http://www.example.com/meeting/y0fpjXrrGP

What am I mising on the below? Note I am using WordPress so adding to the existing htaccess file.

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
RewriteRule ^meeting/(.*)$ meeting.php?ref=$1
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

Options -Indexes

Adding RewriteRule ^meeting/(.*)$ meeting.php?ref=$1 does not seem to work at all.

Just use this in your .htaccess file:

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

It will leave you with the URL: http://www.example.com/meeting/y0fpjXrrGP

Make sure you clear your cache when testing this.

You don't need to add that to .htaccess, if your URL is inside your Wordpress, you need to add them to the rewrite URL

Check this: How to create custom URL routes?

Hope it helps.
