htaccess Redirect index.php to root

---

---

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^.*/index\.php
RewriteRule ^(.*)index.php$ /$1 [R=301,L] 

You can replace second line with this

RewriteRule ^(.*)index\.(php|html?)$ /$1 [R=301,NC,L]

It redirects URIs ending with index.php, index.htm or index.html to /. Works with subdirectories, too.

Also, notice the NC flag. It makes it case-insensitive. So it works even if the URI is in upper-case such asINDEX.PHP.
