im looking for some thing like wordpress htaccess style .

this is my .htaccess:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
# If no-www domain requested, externally redirect to www domain
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example\.org
rewriterule (.*) http://www.example.org/$1 [R=301,L]
# If www+subdomain domain requested, externally redirect to subdomain without "www"
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.([^.]+)\.example\.org
rewriterule (.*) http://%1.example.org/$1 [R=301,L]
# If subdomain+www domain requested, externally redirect to subdomain without "www"
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^([^.]+)\.www\.example\.org
rewriterule (.*) http://%1.example.org/$1 [R=301,L]
# If subdomain requested, rewrite home page requests to index.php with query string user=subdomain & page="home"
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.example\.org
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^([^.]+)\.example\.org
rewriterule ^$ blogs/%1 [L]
and this the wordpress one : for who can make it work with sumple subdir :
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
# Rewrite www.example.com to example.com
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.*)
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://%1/$1 [R,L]
#uploaded files
RewriteRule ^(.*/)?files/$ index.php [L]
RewriteRule ^(.*/)?files/(.*) wp-content/blogs.php?file=$2 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d

The first step would be to delete this section (or comment it out) of the WordPress code, since you are already doing this in your own code:

# Rewrite www.example.com to example.com
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.*)
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://%1/$1 [R,L]

The rest is not clear, so please provide examples of what URLs you request, what filenames you want those URLs to serve, and what filenames they actually serve.

We need to know:

How did you test? (what URL-paths did you request?)

What did you expect? (what is the expected correct server filepath?)

What is the actual result? (what was the actual, incorrect filepath?)

How do the actual results differ from what you expected?

Try to provide as much information as possible in that order, changing only the domain name (use example.com).

Do you ever get requests for something.www.domain.com then?

I would find that very unlikely.

I also wonder how your code you cope with www.www.domain.com in that case?
