Url rewriting issue in seach.php url after upgrade to prestashop 16

[giasemis]

I am using apache mod_rewrite I need to perform a url rewriting in .htaccess file

All the url of this type :

• el/search.php?orderby=position&orderway=desc&tag=Perugia+Sienna
  
• el/search.php?orderby=position&orderway=desc&tag=Perugia
  
• el/search.php?orderby=position&tag=Perugia
  

is not working after upgrade in the latest version of Prestashop

I need to rewrite them as follow:

• el/search?orderby=position&orderway=desc&tag=Perugia+Sienna
  
• el/search?orderby=position&orderway=desc&tag=Perugia
  
• el/search?orderby=position&tag=Perugia
  

so basically in need to remove the .php from the url

what is the best way to do that;

You just need to turn on friendly urls from the back office, seo and urls preferences
