Any idea? Thanks

Answer 2

Whilst mosg's link does have the answers you're looking for, I figured it might be easier to just explain the part you need.

I'm not sure if you want to redirect index.php?title=about TO /about/, or if you want /about/ to silently call index.php?title=about.

For /about/ -> /index.php?title=about (silently):

RewriteEngine on  # turn on re-writing
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/index\.php.*  # for every non-rewritten request
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/index.php?title=$1 [L] # rewrite to index.php

For /index.php?title=about -> /about/ (not silently)

RewriteEngine on  # turn on re-writing
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/index\.php?title=.*  # for index.php?title=slug request
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L] # rewrite to /slug/

Hope this helps :)
