In reply to: Custom page names?thanks moshu – so it sounds like an SE friendly redirect would need to be put in place for each of the old pages…i believe thats a 301…

In reply to: WP Permalink rules taking over unrelated sub directoriesI do, but it is not used – I put the .htaccess in all my WP sites’s roots now and was able to remove the one on the server root. I was confused for a while on the location but I worked through that.
Still get 404s every time I try to access a non-wp file though…

In reply to: WP Permalink rules taking over unrelated sub directoriesthank you for the response otto. here is my .htaccess, located in the root of the site (/public_html/site/.
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine OnRewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule># END WordPress
note that the site is on a server with many other sites (including other wp sites). At the root of the server (public_html/) is another htaccess file:
# BEGIN WordPress <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] </IfModule> # END WordPressForum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: WP Permalink rules taking over unrelated sub directoriesFor others with this problem, I have recently tried this solution I found in another post:
ADDED: Thanks to Teli’s comment below, I’ve implemented the TPX solution (from TextPattern), and all is solved. I created a myerror.html page and, in the .htaccess, removed the above “fix” (and the fix in the index.php) and added the following:
ErrorDocument 401 /misc/myerror.html
ErrorDocument 403 /misc/myerror.htmlI also rebooted, which was causing my first fix above to stop working; this one works fine. Hats off to TextPattern.
This did not work for me either.
In a nutshell, I need to access some non-WP pages on the WP site but WP throws a 404 everytime I try to access them.
I created a directory, TestDirectory, and a file, test.html. So along with the normal wp directories (/wp-content/ etc) there is /TestDirectory/test.html.
When I try to access test.html, even though I know its there, I get a 404.

In reply to: what is this? (in .htaccess)Thanks. So this code, which is located at my server root (above the wp site in question), is controlling the permalinks and redirects (ie 404 for access outside of WP folders/files):
# BEGIN WordPress <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] </IfModule> # END WordPressForum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: WP Permalink rules taking over unrelated sub directoriesWhat are my other support options to resolve this?

In reply to: WP Permalink rules taking over unrelated sub directoriesThrough my research I actually installed the plugin to deactivate canonical redirects.
This did not fix the problem of accessing non-WP files in non-WP subdirectories.

In reply to: WP Permalink rules taking over unrelated sub directoriesSorry moshu. I was just surprised to see how many folks have had the same exact problem and no resolutions posted for it…and it seems that there should be a simple solution to this issue.

In reply to: Linking to non-WP pages when WP is in rootEiland,
Can you clarify where these lines go? within the Begin/End WOrdpress? My current .htaccess looks like this:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule># END WordPress
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: WP Permalink rules taking over unrelated sub directoriesI have this same issue. Appently there is a way to modify .htaccess to allow certain subdirectories to be accessed. Can anyone help out here?
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: 404 for subdirectory?I have this same exact problem. Anyone?
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Added a script in the root but get a 404I’ve searched and found this issue to be very common. There was one solution that sort of makes sense – to add some lines of “allowable” subdirectories in .htaccess:
# stuff to let through (ignore) RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} "/folder1/" [OR] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} "/folder2/" RewriteRule (.*) $1 [L] #Does this mean that my .htaccess should look like this:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} “/directory/”
RewriteRule (.*) $1 [L]
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule># END WordPress
…or do I do it separate from the # WordPress section?

In reply to: Ouch! Just Realized Its not Working in IE! What the?thanks jeremy, mrkingid.
whooami: :And I told you how it happened. It happened because your version is exploitable.”
um, that’s why, not how. No matter. Im fine. Got it.
“You accidentally didnt upgrade? OK, whatever.”
I never said that, check the posts.
“Like I said, over a year old..”
You didn’t say that.
“You want a virtual hug? Come back after you have upgraded.”
Thanks. I’m running 2.5 on several other sites. This site was purchased and transferred, I did not do the install….but I’ll be looking for that big great virtual hug and a wet sloppy virtual kiss when I return!
Thanks again all. Have a great day!

In reply to: Ouch! Just Realized Its not Working in IE! What the?whooami,
thanks for you insight. I am aware this was some sort of exploitation. My question was how? You offer no information. I know what version IM running on that sight, I entered it when I posted.
I never said I couldn’t be bothered either. I’m just a humble sap looking for some information. Maybe you got some use or feel-good-moment out of your post?
