Forum Moderators: phranque
I understand what most of them are doing, and what i need to change in them when moving what dir they are in. (or at least i think i do)
But I don't understand this line.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI}!(index\.php¦\.css) [NC]
This is the original htacess file that was in wwwroot/forum
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^([a-z0-9_\-]*-(f¦all)[0-9]+(p[0-9]+¦/index[0-9]*)?\.html)$ forumdisplay.php/$1 [QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^([a-z0-9_\-]*-(t¦p)[0-9]+(p[0-9]+¦/index[0-9]*)?\.html)$ showthread.php/$1 [QSA,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI}!(index\.php¦\.css) [NC]
RewriteRule ^(archive¦sitemap)/(.*)$ $1/index.php/$2 [QSA,L]
I'm trying to move/combine the .htacess file from /forum with the one in wwwroot
This is what I have changed it to when moving it to wwwroot
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}!^www\.mydomain\.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}!^$
RewriteRule ^(.*) [mydomain.com...] [L,R=301]
RewriteRule ^forum/([a-z0-9_\-]*-(f¦all)[0-9]+(p[0-9]+¦/index[0-9]*)?\.html)$ forumdisplay.php/$1 [QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^forum/([a-z0-9_\-]*-(t¦p)[0-9]+(p[0-9]+¦/index[0-9]*)?\.html)$ showthread.php/$1 [QSA,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI}!(index\.php¦\.css) [NC]
RewriteRule ^forum/(archive¦sitemap)/(.*)$ $1/index.php/$2 [QSA,L]
The first part is what I already had in the wwwroot .htaccess file to make sure they are visiting my site from www.mydomain.com (an not mydomain.com or www.mydomain.net, etc.)
The RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI}!(index\.php¦\.css) [NC] line in the 2nd part is the one I'm not so sure about. I didn't make any changes to that line from what it originally was when in wwwroot/forum because I really don't understand what that line is supposed to do.
Any help is appreciated.
Note that the pattern should probably be end-anchored.
