WordPress: .htaccess for subdirectories Monday, March 12, 2007

This may or may not be due to my host provider (hosteurope.de)

Problem: Configuring Wordpress v2.x permalinks mode to clean URLs in subdirectories

As it took me a bit of headache to configure WP 2 with clean permalinks, I've decided to post the solution that worked for me here for you to use/apply if you're on the same host and encounter similar issues.

My solution: .htaccess mod_rewrite configuration for WordPress install via subdirectories:

1. #DirectoryIndex index.php, index.html
2. #Options +FollowSymLinks
3. #RewriteBase /relative/web/path/
4. < IfModule mod_rewrite.c >
5. RewriteEngine On
6. RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
7. RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
8. RewriteRule ^(.+) - [PT,L]
9. RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php [L]
10. < /IfModule >
11. #php_value register_globals 0
