Local URL Change

[SrVirtual 3]

Hello, how are you doing?
I would like to make a local URL change on my server

Currently my local URL is http://localhost/web/index.html#!/home
And I wish it was something more cora like 
http://localhost/home
that is, that /web/index.hml#! since this are always fixed and do not change

Try with 

http://localhost:8096

Yes, of course, it grabs but when I hit enter the url changes back to its original state and the original state is what I want to change

Guess it should be a FR, then.

[SrVirtual 3]

how is that a FR?, I never heard of that

SRV,

Browser changing back to original URL address is probably a browser cache issue.  Clear the browser cache?

No friend, my goal is to make my local URL shorter, it's not a cache problem. I was researching and I think that with a local reverse proxy it can be achieved, the fact is that I already tried but when I place the url as I want it to be it is automatically changed to its original state

There isn't a way as that is how Emby urls work.  Don't know reverse proxies but that will probably be your only option.

As your method localhost:8096/home does not exist.

 

The file '/home' cound not be found.

Hi, what would you like the URL to be?

[SrVirtual 3]

My goal is to go from being http://localhost:8096//web/index.html#!/
to
http://localhost:8096/
or at least
http://localhost:8096//web/
That is, I want the url not to originally say index.html

[Luke 42080]

http://localhost:8096/

This already works just fine.

@SrVirtualIf I understand right, you try to achieve a permanent shortening of the Emby URL, not just first time a user types it in the adress bar. If so, what you are searching for is an URL rewrite via a reverse proxy like Caddy Server or NGINX like @Happy2Playmentioned.

To setup a Reverse proxy, there are plenty of tutorials in this forum:

But I don't know how Emby reacts on the URL rewrites.

What purpose would this actually serve? Why do you need this?
