    Hello Help Angels,

    My blog is in a subdomain /petblog

    When I upgraded recently and lost my permalink settings I reset them to default and then pack to how I wanted them.

    I have created an error 404 page for my domain which was coming up when my permalinks weren't working. I got a note when I corrected to change my .htaccess file to the following:

    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /petblog/
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /petblog/index.php [L]
    </IfModule>

    which I added to the error 404 command like so:

    ErrorDocument 404 http://www.vivbounty.com/vb_404.html
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /petblog/
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /petblog/index.php [L]
    </IfModule>

    But now my entire domain redirects to a page not found within the petblog.

    I would like it the other way around so that any pages not found on my main domain re-direct to my error 404 page.

    Can anyone help?

    Thanks in advance

    Correction:

    should read redirects to blog in subdirectory,

    When I upgraded recently and lost my permalink settings I reset them to default and then pack to how I wanted them.

    should read ...default and then back to how I wanted them...

    I'd like the error 404 page to work for the entire domain including the petblog.

    Thanks again,
    VivBounty
