Most solutions posted only redirect to the the domain, not with full path.
You’d want to do this: http://halfelf.org/2012/htaccess-anarchy/
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^blog\.example\.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://example.com/$1 [L,R=301]
That looks good, but it doesnt appear to be applying. I guess there is clash in htaccess(?). Could someone let me know where the above lines should fit in, I would be grateful. I am “googled out” on this problem 🙂
This is my current file.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
# uploaded files
RewriteRule ^files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^ - [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
<IfModule mod_security.c>
SecFilterEngine Off
SecFilterScanPOST Off
</IfModule>
Well there’s problem one. You didn’t follow the directions of ‘replace’ the .htaccess….
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^blog\.example\.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://example.com/$1 [L,R=301]
# BEGIN WordPress
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
# uploaded files
RewriteRule ^files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^ - [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]
# END WordPress
<IfModule mod_security.c>
SecFilterEngine Off
SecFilterScanPOST Off
</IfModule>
That was current htaccess without any edit – I just wasn’t sure where to put those lines. Thankyou so much, very appreciated 🙂 It works! And I learned a little more about rewrites, so no bad thing
