Hey guys, quick question.

I'm setting up a page for my podcast, and I need to redirect all incoming links to a subfolder without breaking my links to my podcast files.

Here is my directory structure:
/.htaccess
/podcast.xml
/podcast1.mp3
/podcast2.mp3
/site/index.php

I already have my site established as /site so I don't want to move it to root, how do I redirect traffic to /site without breaking access to the xml or mp3 files?

Thanks everyone.

You setup the rewrite like you normally would, but you add at least one RewriteCond above the RewriteRule that excludes rewrites when the REQUEST_URI matches /podcast([0-9]*\.mp3|\.xml) or depending on what else you have going on, something similar.

Code: [ Select ]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/podcast([0-9]*\.mp3|\.xml)
RewriteRule ...
  1. RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/podcast([0-9]*\.mp3|\.xml)
  2. RewriteRule ...
Strong with this one, the sudo is.
