Handling ?ref="nf" gracefully - El Forum - 11-05-2010

So I had a question, facebook is appending ?ref=nf to my links and it's breaking my links:
e.g. http://domain.com/someUniqueID?ref=nf
Any thoughts on a graceful way to strip that out?
One thought is to add some in the index.php bootstrap, but it'd be cool to be able to use routes ...
Thanks, Mark

It sounds like some .htaccess may do the trick. Maybe this can help: http://dranger.com/weblog/entry/apache_mod_rewrite_strip_query_string.html

A regular expression replacing all after ? should help.
Something like this on the htaccess file may do the trick:
Code:
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^(.*)\?.*$ $1 [R]Handling ?ref="nf" gracefully - El Forum - 01-10-2011

Does not work for me, thanks anyway!

I ended putting this in my index.php file:
Code:
if( stristr( $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], '?ref=nf' ) ) {
header( "location: http://" . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . str_replace( '?ref=nf', '', $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] ) );
exit;

Thanks, but didn't work for me.
I changed the config from auto to path_info, but now it's not displaying the right page!?
Code:
$config['uri_protocol'] = "PATH_INFO";
