RewriteRule ^.*$ index.php?page= [NC,L]


This will result in a rewrite loop. You are also not capturing the sub pattern, so will be empty. In order to prevent a rewrite loop, you need a get-out-clause, such as not rewriting when the request is already for index.php.

Something like:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !=/index.php
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?page= [NC,L]


Only when the request is not for /index.php will the RewriteRule be processed. The parenthesised sub pattern (.*) is stored in .
