Any change I try causes HTTP 500 errors. WordPress is in a “/guide/” folder and has its own htaccess file.

# BEGIN WordPress

RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /guide/

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

RewriteRule . /guide/index.php [L]

# END WordPress

The root “/” has a htaccess file of it own that tells the .com, .us and ,net alias url to redirect to the .org url.

# [ CP Global Redirection ]

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^example.org$ [NC]

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://example.org/$1 [L,R=301]

# [ CP Global Redirection ]

# [ CP Global ErrorDocument ]

ErrorDocument 403 /

ErrorDocument 404 /

# [ CP Global ErrorDocument ]

Every subfolder works correctly except for the “/guide/” due to htaccess.

Any change I try causes HTTP 500 errors.

Curently, we are working to correct an error that we are getting on alias domains. A guess is the .htaccess file in the root is the culprit and may have to add customize .htaccess file in folders that needs redirecting then remove the one in root. Any opinions? <abbr><em>411 New York’s last blog post... <a href="http://nysgo.com/forums/newyork/index.php?showtopic=29349" rel="nofollow">LAWYER ACCUSED OF FORGING JUDGE'S SIGNATURE IN REAL-ESTATE SCAM</a></abbr></em> You were right. :) Thanks again for your wisdom.

This is because the htaccess file will be the first thing hit and it will instruct that all visits/spiders move to the new location before seeing anything else. So you will only need a robots.txt file in the new location.

We moved a forum from http://newyorkforum.us to http://411newyork.org/forum/ so our custom google search has to only work one site. In the long run, all we will have it one domian to maintain which will cit cost. Question. How should a robot.txt file be configured on the old site? Should thee be one at all?
