If the website url is www.domain.com/subfolder/sitecontent , then how do I update the .htaccess

  • 0

If the website url is www.domain.com/subfolder/sitecontent, then how do I update the .htaccess file below so that all the requests go to /subfolder/index.php instead of /index.php . I know I can manually add /subfolder/ but I need it to be dynamic. Is it possible?

Basically I intend to use the same htaccess and same set of files on 2-3 different URLs on the same server. e.g. one is www.domain2.com/sitecontent (no subfolder here). All these URLs point to the same site. Any help will be appreciated.

This is how my current .htaccess file looks like. It’s located at /subfolder/.htaccess for domain1 or / for 2nd domain example.

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    #http://codeigniter.com/wiki/mod_rewrite
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /

    #Removes access to the system folder by users.
    #Additionally this will allow you to create a System.php controller,
    #previously this would not have been possible.
    #'system' can be replaced if you have renamed your system folder.
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^system.*
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 [L]

    #When your application folder isn't in the system folder 
    #This snippet prevents user access to the application folder 
    #Rename 'application' to your applications folder name.
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^application.*
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 [L]

    #Checks to see if the user is attempting to access a valid file, 
    #such as an image or css document, if this isn't true it sends the 
    #request to index.php
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]

</IfModule>

<IfModule !mod_rewrite.c>
    # If we don't have mod_rewrite installed, all 404's
    # can be sent to index.php, and everything works as normal.

    ErrorDocument 404 /index.php
</IfModule>

    don’t know if catched what you need at all, but i think you just need to append the folder name, can you try this:

    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    #http://codeigniter.com/wiki/mod_rewrite
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /subfolder

    #Removes access to the system folder by users.
    #Additionally this will allow you to create a System.php controller,
    #previously this would not have been possible.
    #'system' can be replaced if you have renamed your system folder.
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^system.*
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /subfolder/index.php?/$1 [L]

    #When your application folder isn't in the system folder 
    #This snippet prevents user access to the application folder 
    #Rename 'application' to your applications folder name.
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^application.*
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /subfolder/index.php?/$1 [L]

    #Checks to see if the user is attempting to access a valid file, 
    #such as an image or css document, if this isn't true it sends the 
    #request to index.php
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /subfolder/index.php?/$1 [L]

</IfModule>

<IfModule !mod_rewrite.c>
    # If we don't have mod_rewrite installed, all 404's
    # can be sent to index.php, and everything works as normal.

    ErrorDocument 404 /index.php
</IfModule>
