I have a forum and a website which were located in / (root) and /website/. Now, I moved my forum to /forum/ in order to organize the web server better and to be actually able to find something when needed.
What I want to do is somehow redirect requests like
www.mywebsite.com
http://mywebsite.com/
http://www.mywebsite.com/
to /website/ and any request made to my base url but followed by a page (www.mywebsite.com/index.php as an example) to my /forum subfolder.
Is that even possible to do en-mase ? Or can I least redirect if I match a specific file ?
Rule that redirects requests to base url over to my website folder that I have in my .htacces already.
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain.com$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.domain.com$
RewriteRule ^/?$ "http\:\/\/www.domain\.com\/website_folder\/" [R=301,L]
Thank you for your help.
You can use this code in your DOCUMENT_ROOT/.htaccess file:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/?$ /website_root/ [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^((?!(?:website_root|forum)/).+)$ /forum/$1 [L,NC]

I am using .htaccess file like below for redirect www to non www on my public_html directory
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%1/$1 [R=301,L]
its working fine and redirect like below
www.example.com
to
https://example.com
Now in my sub directory called latest, I have another .htaccess file like below
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^/\.]+)/?$ index.php?page=$1 [L]
which is making my url clean like below
www.example.com/latest/index.php?page=1
to
www.example.com/latest/1
but even I have .htaccess file in home directory which is making www to non www, my this directory does not redirect www to non www.
I want redirect
www.example.com/latest/1
to
https://example.com/latest/1
I am sure .htaccess file in my directory is causing issue but I do not know how to resolve it. Let me know if anyone here can help me for the same.
Thanks!
The problem is, mod_rewrite is not inherited (at least by default). If you have a rewrite rule in the "default" directory .. You're going to have to include that rule in all subsequent directories "below" that. I have never seen (or heard of) a setting for allowing mod_rewrite to allow inheritance from parent .htaccess files. In general, this is just accepted as "the way it is".
UPDATE
THIS QUESTION In Server Fault explains this as well. The mod_rewrite rules from the previous htaccess files don't even get processed.

I have a CI installation in my root domain. SSL certificate is installed and working properly. When I redirect http:// to https://www it redirects to https://www.www (an extra www), that too on some computers and some browsers as users have reported. However, when I remove 'www' from redirection, its all fine. Seems like www is looping. So far, I've digged my code hundred times, and see no sign of redirection from code (I mean addition of extra www). I'm doing it with htaceess. Any help will be highly appreciated. This is my htaccess:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
#Force SSL
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !on
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R,L]
#Removes access to the system folder by users.
#Additionally this will allow you to create a System.php controller,
#previously this would not have been possible.
#'system' can be replaced if you have renamed your system folder.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^system.*
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]
#Checks to see if the user is attempting to access a valid file,
#such as an image or css document, if this isn't true it sends the
#request to index.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]
</IfModule>
I'm running it on apache with Centos VPS.
Thank you so much!
The HTTP_HOST is the "target host" part of the request, like: www.mydomain.com.
The REQUEST_URI is generally the path which was given in order to access a certain page; for instance, ‘/folder/index.html’.
In your RewriteRule you say to put 'www.' in front of the requested domainname.
You don't want that, when someone asks for http://www.yourdomain.com.
Without the www. in your RewriteRule someone who requests for http://yourdomain.com gets redirected to https://yourdomain.com
When you want to redirect to https and www you need to add conditions. Look into Apache docs on Canonical host and on questions/4083221/how-to-redirect-all-http-requests-to-https for this solution:
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS_HOST} !^www.yourdomain.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.yourdomain.com/$1 [L,R=301]
I've got the root of my domain with some folders.
app
scripts
shop
And I want to redirect with the .htaccess everything to the folder shop, except app and scripts. I wrote the next .htaccess, but I've got a 500 ERROR INTERNAL SERVER. I saw the log file and it says that there is and endless loop.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/app
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/scripts
RewriteRule (.*)$ shop/$1 [L]
I have another hosting with other apps and cms in the same hosting provider. Even with the same structure and it works perfect, then I don't undertand why doesn't work here.
How can I avoid the endless loop?
EDIT: I want that the redirect will be invisible, not with [R]
EDIT 2: My purpose is:
Having this folders:
app
scripts
shop
Access to the shop folder with the URL: domain.com
Access to the app folder with: domain.com/app
Access to the scripts folder with: domain.com/scripts
You'll also have to exclude URLs beginning with shop:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/?$ /shop/ [L]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^GET\ /shop(/\S*)? [NC]
RewriteRule ^shop / [R=301,L,NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(app|scripts|shop)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /shop/$1 [L]
I've added an redirect from an old domain to my new domain in the .htaccess file of my Joomla 3.x site, running on Apache.
This is the code I'm trying to get working;
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !newdomain\.co\.uk$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http\:\/\/www\.newdomain\.co\.uk/$1 [R=301,L]
This succeeds in redirecting any incorrect domain to my new domain, but does NOT put me on the corresponding sub-page.
So, for example, I type in the following address ..;
http:\\old.com\calendar
... and I WANT to end up at;
http:\\newdomain.co.uk\calendar
But instead, I get directed to;
http:\\newdomain.co.uk\index.php
Can anyone help me get the redirect working to land me on the corresponding sub-page?
For the record, the Joomla site's SEO settings are as follows (and work as you would expect - site pages do not generally include index.php in the URL and correspond to the menu item alias);
Search Engine Friendly URLs - YES
Use URL rewriting - YES
Adds Suffix to URL - NO
Unicode Aliases - NO
The COMPLETE .htaccess file looks like this - I don't know if Joomla's .htaccess definitions are affecting the redirect that I've put in place;
Options +FollowSymLinks

Thanks in advance to anyone who can provide some insight!
You are rewriting a lot of stuff to index.php before already – so when your new Rules you added below that are evaluated, the (internal) request URI most likely is index.php already.
So move those new rules further up.
My URL structure is currently as follows:
http://domain.com/folder/filename (CURRENT)
I want to change this so that I can use the following URL instead:
http://sub.domain.com/filename (NEW)
So accessing the CURRENT or the NEW url, should load the file located at the CURRENT url, but show the NEW url in the address bar. It should only apply to the "/folder/" path.
sub.domain.com is a mirror of domain.com, ie. they share the same file system and root directory.
This is what I have so far:
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?domain.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/folder/?(.*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://sub.domain.com/$1 [R=301,L]
This is working, but is missing the rule to remove the "/folder/" from the path. I've tried combining multiple RewriteRule's with no luck. Any ideas? Thanks.
UPDATE: Thanks again #Gerben - I understand what your rules are doing now, but the second one isn't working for me. I suspect because it's conflicting with some other rewrite rules, in particular those of WordPress, which are lower down in my .htaccess file:
# BEGIN WordPress
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
# END WordPress
Because of this the page ends up in a redirect loop, ie (from Chrome):
"The webpage at http://sub.domain.com/folder/index.php has resulted in too many redirects." - while the url I was originally trying to access was, for example, http://sub.domain.com/page
Any ideas?
Try:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?domain.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(folder/)?(.*)$ http://sub.domain.com/$2 [R=301,L]
This will redirect everything to sub.domain.com, and remove the /folder part of the URI if it is there. If not, it redirects and leaves the URI untouched.
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /folder/
RewriteRule ^folder/(.*)$ http://sub.domain.com/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^sub\.domain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/folder/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ folder/$1 [L]
# WordPress rules here
edit the second R=301 should not have been there
But this won't work, as wordpress has no way of knowing you want folder. You could add the Proxy flag to the rewrite, but then you need to change the rule above to not redirect on this internal proxy request.
