mod rewrite help needed

[JonSimmonds]

Hi

I had a wiki at the address www.site.com/wiki/

As part of a mini re layout I moved the wiki to wiki.site.com (and cpanel uses the folder wiki in the file system)

I am trying to redirect links from the old folder wiki to the new subdomain one. A simple redirect I can do, but when trying to redirect a link like this is were I hit the brick wall

www.site.com/wiki/index.php/widget

Ive spent the good part of today trying to solve this, mainly by seearching forums and google to no joy, any help?

Jon,

Welcome to WebmasterWorld!

This should not be particularly difficult, but please post your code so we can discuss it -- See our forum charter (link above) for more info.

The code I currently have in the "wiki" folder, which is used to remove the index.pho (hxtp://wiki.site.com/index.php/widget becomes hxtp://wiki.site.com/widget)

--

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^(images¦skins)/ - [L]
RewriteRule .*\.php$ - [L]
RewriteRule ^/?(.*)$ /index.php?title=$1 [L,QSA]

--
The only solution I got to half work was by placing the following code in my main folder (since the old link was site.com/wiki/index.php/widget)

--
RedirectMatch permanent ^/wiki/$ http://wiki.site.com

my bad posted a link... cant see the edit post

I think half my problem lies in the fact that the folder "wiki" is being used for 2 things, and I may be best renaming the current subdomain?

I'm not sure what your URL structure looks like, and I'm afraid that your description confused me. However, if I understand the question, then your're probably looking for something like this:

RewriteEngine on
#
# Rewrite wiki folder requests to wiki subdomain
RewriteRule ^wiki(.*)$ http://wiki.example.com$1 [R=301,L]
#
# Else rewrite all requests except for /images, /skins and php files to index.php script
RewriteCond $1!^(images¦skins)/¦\.php$
RewriteRule (.*) /index.php?title=$1 [QSA,L]
