Question

Ok So i have come across a problem with my htaccess and how to get it to work.

I have just purchased a ssl wildcard for my primary and sub domains.
I am with bluehost and they suggest adding this:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^subdomain.example.com$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/subfolder/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /subdomain/$1
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^subdomain.example.com$
RewriteRule ^(/)?$ subfolder/index.php [L]

At the moment all i have is this…

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain\.com
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.domain.com/$1 [L]

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^sub.domain.com
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule . sub_folder/index.php [L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]

and that works however, i cannot get it so that when i open the file, it just opens the file with no redirects…
So If i open sub.domain.com/file/fil1.js it will open the index.php which is what i do not want…

but if i do /browse or something like that it works…

Ok after much mucking around and playing around it was the file request which wasnt including the subdomain folder, which was causing it to not find the file location. So I managed to do a manual check for the file, and this is what i got. This seems to do exactly what i want. Im not sure if there is a more efficient way, but this is what it got.

#-------------------SUB.DOMAIN.COM---------------------
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^sub.domain.com
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/sub_folder%{REQUEST_URI} -f
RewriteRule . %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/sub_folder%{REQUEST_URI} [L]

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^sub.domain.com
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f 
RewriteRule . sub_folder/index.php [L]
#--------------------------------------------------------------

instead of

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^sub.domain.com
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule . sub_folder/index.php [L]
