Question

I am working with a CMS, and up until today its been fine.

But i have discovered that the mod rewirte only works if the website is in the root directory. If I put the entire CMS into a folder, i get a 404.

Please help!

Answer 1

Then you need to add the subfolder to your rewrite rule like this, for all of your rules.

RewriteRule ^([^/\.]+)/?$ /subfolder/index.php?1=$1 [L]

With your configuration apache will search for the index.php file in the root directory
