I have installed Xenforo in my public_html in my Cpanel which means my forum is available in site.com
Now I want to add another folder contains my web app and want to access it in site.com/myapp. I created a folder "myapp" in public_htmll beside Xenforo files and now when I enter the URL site.com/myapp it goes to a 404 page of the forum. I need to Xenforo exclude this folder and let the app lunch in this address. How can I do that?
You should move your XenForo installation to a subdirectory - many people use site.com/community as the forum root and either have a separate home page at site.com/ or just redirect the domain root to the /community URL.
This then allows you to have other apps running in other subdirectories like site.com/myapp without issue.
In XenForo 2.x this works fine, If you have enabled full Seo friendly urls from admin panel, Make sure you have proper .htaccess file in place. In you case, I believe you did not upload .htaccess file in public_html folder

I don't have my .htaccess file for my magento installation which is by default present for all the fresh magento installation.
Now I have to remove "index.php" from my wesite url and found out htaccess file needs to be edited. But, there is no .htaccess file in my magento root folder.
Also, I have made a lot of changes to the website and don't want to do a fresh installation to get the .htaccess file.
Also, when I access my admin panel it also needs "index.php" in the URL.
Please, can someone help me with this.
To Remove the inde.php from the URL you need to enable Web Server Rewrites.
You can enable Web Server Rewrites suing below steps:
Login in Backend, from Top Navigation click on System >> Configuration >> Web
Select Use Web Server Rewrites to YES in Search Engines Optimization group.
If you need .htaccess file, you can donwload the compatible magento zip file and can use its .htaccess. There is no need to install magento for this.
My friend's dad asked me to change the design of his website, so he gave me access to his account and I created a sub-folder where I uploaded the new design. The problem is that he has forgotten the password to his control panel and I only have access to the FTP in the sub-folder. I'm trying to redirect the domain (currently going to the root folder) to the sub-folder but since I don't have access to the root folder I'm finding it difficult to do so.
I've already tried a redirect with .htaccess but since I can only upload the file to my sub-folder, it thinks the redirect is to a sub-folder within that folder, instead of the folder inside the root.
TL;DR...
I want to redirect 'mydomain.com' to 'mydomain.com/folder' but only have access to the FTP in 'mydomain.com/folder'.
Thanks in advance!
.htaccess applies to the directory that contains it.
You cannot change this if you have not access to vhost.conf files (what would change the base dir of the site) or to the parent directory’s .htaccess.
You will need to:
Reset your dad’s friend’s password and forget this redirect, changing the existing web files (the cleanest way), or
change the .htaccess file in your parent's dad directory, adding this:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/?(.*)$ dir2/$1 [R=301,L,P]
This should redirect the user to dir2, hiding that redirect in the urlbar.

I am new to magento, I have worked on VirtueMart for joomla for a year now and I noticed it has no multistore ability until a friend introduced me to magento. I have succesfully installed magento(1.7.0.2) into WAMP 2.2 (PHP v5.3.13) on my Windows7.
I succesfully created root categories just as directed here: http://www.templatemonster.com/help/magento-how-to-set-up-and-manage-multiple-stores.html but in my own case, I am using sub-directories (ie //domain/magento as main store and //domain/magento/crunchies as store2).
A root category was created at the backend for crunchies. I copied both index.php and htaccess from magento folder (c:/wamp/www/magento) to crunchies folder (c:/wamp/www/magento/crunchise).on the crunchies' copy of index.php, $mageFilenam =‘app/Mage.php’; I change it to $mageFilename=‘../app/Mage.php’;
And saved changes, I also open up the copied htaccess file and added the following to the end of it:
SetEnvIf Host.*MainWebsite.*MAGE_RUN_CODE= base";
SetEnvIfHost .*www.crunchies.com.*MAGE_RUN_TYPE="cruncies_code";
Where website names created at System>manage store of backend are: Main Website(for main store) and www.crunchies.com (for store2).
When I point to domain/magento on my browser, it shows home page but when I point to domain/magento/crunchies, I get :\"mydirectery"../app/Mage.php was not found.
Please how do I solve this issue? Is there any other setting I'm missing out in my wamp config?
We have our server which runs the site at 173......54/
For development we want to have a copy of the code that can be tested at 173.....54/~me/site
When I install a copy of Yii and the code at ~me/ folder and access 173.....54/~me/site I am able
to see the newly installed index html. However, if I try to move to 173.....54/~me/site/book or a user register page or any other page the other (main) Yii application reads the code as a link not found instead of the development Yii application.
Am I supposed to update a the htaccess file to ignore requests within /~me ? If so how should it look? Or am I missing something?
Thanks again!
No need to make ignore in other .htaccess, the dev site .htaccess will take care of it.
In your index.php at the root of your dev site you need to point $yii at your Yii framework/yii.php
and then in the .htaccess in the root of your dev site you need to point RewriteBase to your dev site root.
Also make sure you point to the correct configuration file corresponding with your application in index.php
I'm looking to set-up a vBulletin install next to a CakePHP install. I was planning on just popping the the vB folder into webroot, but when accessing the folder in my browser, it loses the short URL (i.e. it goes from .com/community to .com/app/webroot/community)
Because of this I wanted to put the vB folder into the root of the directory, next to the app directory, so I can access it directly via .com/community - but the htaccess file is getting in the way, complaining that it can't find the community controller.
So my question is this - what edits do I need to make to the htaccess file for it to allow access to the /community folder directly.
Thank you
Add the following line to your .htaccess file:
RewriteRule ^(community).* - [NC,L]
This will allow direct access to the community folder which is in root directory. Accessing http://localhost/community would be possible after adding this rule.
