Tried redirect of site to new subdir. Issues.
-
I have been developing a website in parallel on my primary site (pariscreative.com) and I went to switch the new site to live and ran into issues.
Step 1. I changed in general settings on the new site to remove the subdirectories.
Step 2. I changed my htaccess file to include the rewritecond and rewrite rule
# BEGIN WordPress <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} /(thumb-temp|thumb-cache|images|cache|media|logs|tmp|temp)/.*\.(php|pl|py|jsp|asp|sh|cgi)$ RewriteRule (.*) /index.php [R=301,L] RewriteRule ^(htaccess\.txt|wp-config-sample\.php?|wp-config\.php?|php\.ini)$ - [F] </IfModule> <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?pariscreative.com$ RewriteRule ^(/)?$ _PCv3 [L] RewriteBase / RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] </IfModule> # END WordPress
Step 3. I changed index.php in root to reflect the new directoy
require( dirname( __FILE__ ) . '/_PCv3/wp-blog-header.php' );
However when I changed this, all the site imagery was broken and I could not access wp-admin. I’ve since switched the old files back, but since I completed step 1 I can’t get into my wp-admin on the new site.
