To achive this url it not directly possible with .htaccess
I use regular expression and other tings in htacess as well

I put remove the cmsid

current my url is http://www.example.com/index.php?link=pages&cmsLink=Carpet

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/admin
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(.*).php
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/?$ index.php?link=pages&cmsLink=$1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]

it return me http://www.example.com/Carpet

Answer 2

Try changing your last rule to this:

RewriteRule ^(.+)$ /index.php?link=pages&cmsid=2&cmsLink=$1

Since you want to have url like http://www.example.com/Carpet, so cmsid and link in your url has to be hardcoded to 2 and pages.
