Trying to change url on website

[Jfrye]

As the title says, I am trying to change the way the url shows up for my website.

http://mysite.no-ip.org/houses.php is how it currently looks.

I am trying to get it to look like this

http://mysite.no-ip.org/houses



Ultimately I would like to get it to look similar to this (with Community/?subtopic also showing in url) but this isnt as big a deal as removing file extensions.

https://secure.tibia.com/community/?subtopic=houses



Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am using Znote AAC 1.5

Edit : I searched google for over an hour before posting this. After posting, I searched one more link, and found the answer I was looking for. I now have removed .php extensions from my weblinks. But I would still like to know how to add subtopic pages.


This is what I used in the .htaccess file.

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngineOn

# Unless directory, remove trailing slash
RewriteCond%{REQUEST_FILENAME}!-d
RewriteRule^([^/]+)/$ http://example.com/folder/$1 [R=301,L]

# Redirect external .php requests to extensionless url
RewriteCond%{THE_REQUEST}^(.+)\.php([#?][^\ ]*)?\ HTTP/
RewriteRule^(.+)\.php$ http://example.com/folder/$1 [R=301,L]

# Resolve .php file for extensionless php urls
RewriteRule^([^/.]+)$ $1.php [L]

So if anyone would be willing to take some time to explain how to make this "/community/?subtopic=houses" show up in my weblinks, that would be awesome.
