php - Redirect url in laravel

Solution:

Hi and welcome on StackOverflow.

To remove/public from the url of your app you will need to edit the.htaccess you provided and put it in the main folder of your Laravel project (i.e.: where lies.env,composer.json, etc.), assuming you placed all the code of your Laravel app in the main domain directory of your Hosting Service. The new.htaccess will look like this:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
   RewriteEngine On
   RewriteBase /
   RewriteRule ^(.*)$ public/$1 [L]
   
</IfModule>
# All other C-Panel related stuff
Copy code

This will internally map all of your urls to/public directory hiding/public in browser.
Remember to not edit or delete the.htaccess file inside thepublic folder unless strictly necessary

You can try the code between<IfModule mod_rewrite.c> and</IfModule> with this online tool

I also suggest to install a local Apache Server (like XAMPP), try to setup a Virtual Host and play a bit with.htaccess file to understand how to properly set up your Laravel Project in production.

Here's a guide on how to create a Virtual Host on XAMPP. It may be useful as a starting point to start creating one on your own.
