 * Basically I want to do what this post is talking about
 * [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/301-redirect-to-root-domain-to-subfolder-multisite?replies=3](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/301-redirect-to-root-domain-to-subfolder-multisite?replies=3)
 * i want christfan.com to autmatically redirect to christfan.com/en when people
   type in the URL.
 * however i’m not entirely sure how to keep redirect the main url to the subfolder
   while keeping only some of the wp- folders intact.
 * also this is my .htaccess right now. the last bit for the redirect is from trying
   to go through my cpanel, and i found the wp- folder stuff online. but it still
   doesn’t seem to be working
 *     ```
       RewriteEngine On
       RewriteBase /
       RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
   
       # add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
       RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?wp-admin$ $1wp-admin/ [R=301,L]
   
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
       RewriteRule ^ - [L]
       RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $2 [L]
       RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(.*\.php)$ $2 [L]
       RewriteRule . index.php [L]
   
       # Whitelist directories and files needed by WordPress
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !/wp-.* [NC]
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/wp-.* [NC]
       RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} !/wp-.* [NC]
   
       RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^christfan\.com$ [OR]
       RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.christfan\.com$
       RewriteRule ^/?$ "http\:\/\/christfan\.com\/en" [R=301,L]
       ```

 * Well yeah. In the end all I’m using is the /en and /ru URL’s, so i wanted the
   the root domain to point automatically at /en.
