301 Redirect

[Dgriff]

Hi
I'm trying to use 301 redirect to tell the browser that my site sits in a sub folder. It works! The only problem is that when I also try to go to my admin area, I'm redirected to my online store. I have another site in another sub folder (for demonstration purposes only) When I try to go to that site I'm redirected to my online store again.
In my public_html folder I have the following:
1. catalog folder (within that is my demonstration site)
2. store folder (in this folder is another folder and my store sits in there...see below)
3. htaccess file.

This is the content of the .htaccess file:

DirectoryIndex /store/catalog/index.php

I want to use the 301 redirect but I dont want to be directed to my online store when I need access to the admin area and the demonstration site. Thanks.

Use a RewriteRule to do the redirect. Use RewriteConds on that rule to exclude URL-paths which should not be redirected, by specifying negative-match patterns for the RewriteConds.

Thanks Jim.
I'm new to this. How might that rule look like? If I could get an example I could put in the appropriate URL paths to be excluded. Thanks.

There are lots of examples in our Apache Forum Library. Also see the URL Rewriting guide at Apache.org
