Redirect help

Hi,
I need some help redirecting paths, which will not interfere with s9y's own redirection rules.
Currently the setup is as follows
mydomain.com/index.html (has a link to: mydomain.com/serendipity/)
mydomain.com/serendipity/ (contains the blog)
As in this installation I may later need an empty public.html folder for other PHP software, I cannot move the installation to the root. Yet I want to do away with the current index.html. Instead
mydomain.com/ should redirect automatically to mydomain.com/serendipity/ and that without interfering in any way with anything else.
What would I have to put into the .htaccess?
Cheers
Dachs

Others might have a better suggestion, but you could try this for starters:
Code: Select all
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?mydomain.com$
RewriteRule ^(/)?$ serendipity [L]

Hello!
I've got a similar question... I have a s9y blog on the root on my site (
http://www.pajareo.com) in /public_html, and I've got a forum on /public_html/SMF (
http://www.pajareo.com/SMF, but I can't get there...
What do I need to put in my .htaccess to get there without any bad interoperation with s9y?
Thanks in advance!

Hi!
Put a .htaccess inside the SMF directory which contains "RewriteEngine Off" to see if that helps?
It's unrelated to this question, though

Garvin

I have a phpBB forum on my site installed in a subfolder named "support". Here is what my htaccess file looks like in that folder:
Code: Select all
DirectoryIndex /support/index.php
<Files "config.php">
Order Allow,Deny
Deny from All
</Files>
<Files "common.php">
Order Allow,Deny
Deny from All
</Files>
Maybe something like that will work for you?

Woops!
Thanks Don!
Garvin found it and I didn't see your answer, sorry.
Anyway, thanks a lot!
