Intro then wordpress (2 posts)

    i'm having trouble finding a way to do this.

    I've done the .htaccess file way and the site redirect way.

    "DirectoryIndex intro.html index.php"

    but i get an ugly loop back to the intro whenever i type the index.php as a link it goes back to the "root"- intro.html instead of the index.php.

    so it just loops from the intro.. to the intro..

    i cant add a redirect for mysite.com/ to mysite.com/intro.html because then anytime i load a link of the index.php it loads the intro instead of the site.

    is there a way to load the intro then the index.php of wordpress properly? within the same root?

    If you're trying to have a main (static) site in the root at mysite.com/intro.html, it may be a better idea to move WordPress to a sub-directory, like mysite.com/blog/ for example. See this for more info:
