I have added url rewrite rules to my .htaccess file. Should I see these changes working right away?

htaccess files follow the same syntax as the main configuration files. Since . htaccess files are read on every request, changes made in these files take immediate effect.
First, visit https://htaccess.madewithlove.be. Then, enter your site's url and your . htaccess rewrite rule in the appropriate fields. Click Check Now.
No, you will not need to restart Apache. You will need to "hard refresh" your web page to see the changes.
Using . htaccess files slows down your Apache http server. Any directive that you can include in a . htaccess file is better set in a Directory block, as it will have the same effect with better performance."
Changes to .htaccess are immediate and do not require a restart. Normally, if you aren't seeing what you expect from .htaccess changes, you have a syntax error and should check Apache's logs for some idea of what's going on.

If you use redirect 301, clear browser cache.
