Answer 1

Have your rule like this:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On 
RewriteBase /

# external redirect from actual URL to pretty one
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/+index\.php\?id=([^\s&]+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1? [R=302,L]

# internal forward from pretty URL to actual one
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ index.php?id=$1 [L,QSA]
</IfModule>
