 * Hey Guys,
 * Hoping someone can help as i’ve got a rather odd issue.
 * I have two wordpress blogs running in a single host. One on the base level, the
   second in a sub-folder.
 * Now essentially the two wordpress blogs are running off the .htaccess file on
   the base folder.
 * **So basically:**
 * / – blog one
    /.htaccess – htaccess for both blogs /central/ – blog two
 * The issue i’m having is that i’m attempting to install a form mailer however 
   i can seem to exclude the cgi-bin folder at
 * /central/cgi-bin/
 * **From the redirect. The coding in the htaccess is as follows:**
 * # BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteCond%{
   REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /index.
   php [L] </IfModule>
 * # END WordPress

 * Read carefully and replace 3 areas.Keep copy of original .htaccess file,in case
   this won’t work for you.
    After necessary 3 changes upload as htaccess.txt and
   then rename by right click to .htaccess (don’t forget the dot at the beginning
   and no dot at the end)Wait 10 minutes aand exit FTP Clear your browser cache 
   and if your site is loaded click CTRL and F5[function key may need to be on with
   some keyboards]
