url_rewrite to subdomain - El Forum - 05-30-2008

[eluser]danfreak[/eluser]
Hey guys,

I must rewrite with header [R=301] (namely redirect permanently) all my uri to say for exmple

Code:
http://www.mysite.com/example/any-file.php

Code:
http://example.mysite.com/any-file.php

Anyone has any suggestion about an .htaccess trick?

Dan

Quote:RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?domain\.com$
RewriteRule ^folder/(.*) http://folder.domain.com/$1 [R=301,L]

Not sure how to go about dynamically matching the condition but hopefully it gets you pointed in the right direction. This is just a google search result. Smile

Thanks for the link - htaccess and regex is definitely something I need to work on.

Am I the only one that has to get some insane Googlefu and test 100 times before I get the right combination to work for me?

Hey Michhael,

your rule works great but...

In the root directory I have the following .htaccess

Code:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php

</IfModule>

Namely the

Code:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

tells "if a directory exists, don't do any rewrite"

I would like to tell:

Code:
if the directory exists but it is "example" (i.e. http://www.mysite.com/example/(anyUri)) redirect to http://example.mysite.com/(any-uri)

else (namely the directory don't exists) rewrite to index.php

I believe mod_rewrite works from top to bottom, so just place the ruleset in the following order:

Quote:<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?domain\.com$
RewriteRule ^folder/(.*) http://folder.domain.com/$1 [R=301,L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php
</IfModule>
