Step 1: Read and understand the documentation at

Step 2: Understand what your existing rewrite rules are doing  
Step 3: Rewrite your rewrite rules

Let us know how you get on and also – if you get stuck – what you’ve  
tried, what’s worked, and what hasn’t worked.

No. You must try translating your Apache rewrite rules to start with.  
Show us what you try, and where you get stuck - then someone may be  
willing to help you understand what you’ve got wrong.

No-one here should just do the whole thing for you if you’re too lazy  
even to try for yourself.
