ok long story short, I have a bundle of directorys that need to be accessed from the domain that I am installing wpmu on.
.htaccess sends me all over the place... but never to these directories.
is there a simple rewrite rule I can use to forward say,
^(.*)/(.*)$ /$1/$2
if it isnt already being forwarded from above?
ok got it, here is the solution I found, incase anyone needs it or wants to tell me that it is dangerous... I really dont know better....
I put this after the main blog rules, and before the other blog rules...
# catch retro directories
RewriteRule ^(.+)/(.*)$ $1/$2 [L]
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ $1 [L]
well I thought it was fixed but now my slugs dont work.... can I make them work on all subdomains but not on the main domain?
ok I got it now.... I had to setup specific slugs on the main blog, but the rest work as they are made....
RewriteRule ^about/$ /wp-inst/index.php?pagename=about [L]
RewriteRule ^contact/$ /wp-inst/index.php?pagename=contact [L]
RewriteRule ^links/$ /wp-inst/index.php?pagename=links [L]
RewriteRule ^archives/$ /wp-inst/index.php?pagename=archives [L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+)\.anyonesblog\.com$
RewriteRule ^(.+)/(.*)$ $1/$2 [L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+)\.anyonesblog\.com$
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ $1 [L]
this might of been much easier for someone that knows how....
