So I'm converting a site to WordPress and keeping the URLs for the content the same except removing the .php extension. My htaccess looks like this
#RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^GET\ /([^/]+/)*[^.]+\.php(\?[^\ ]*)?\ HTTP/
#RewriteRule ^(([^/]+/)*[^.]+)\.php$ http://www.domain.com/$1 [R=301,L]
The problem is the script is trying to remove the extension from even the WordPress scripts. How do I make it so the 3 default WordPress folders and the handful of WordPress scripts in the root are not rewritten?

NM, just added this to the beginning RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

I suspect you also removed the "#" symbols from those lines: Otherwise, they are just treated as comments... If possible, use a specific exclusion pattern based on the WP script names or on the common directory path to those scripts, rather than checking the disk for "file exists" for each and every .php file requested from your server. The fewer file-exists and directory-exists checks you do, the longer it will be before your successful site has to be moved to a dedicated server... :) Jim

Use more RewriteCond lines to exclude those folders from applying. A ! means NOT, here.
