Hi all,
I've got a WPMU install using subdirectories that's managing several former WP blogs. New registrations are off.
I need route the old main blog's (domain root) permalinks to the new root blog.
All I need to do is either remove the /blog/ from the root blog's permalinks, or create an htaccess rule that would route old post permalinks to new.
OLD: DOMAIN/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%/
NEW: DOMAIN/blog/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%/
It seems like an htaccess rule would be easiest. Since I control creation of new blogs, I'm assuming name collisions won't be an issue (I could easily be wrong on this).
I was thinking I could test for a year at the beginning of the path, and then insert "/blog/" at the beginning the path.
Anyone know how to create this kind of rule? Nothing I've tried has worked.
Am I barking up the wrong tree? Is there a different solution? (I've searched and searched the forums, to no avail.)
