mod rewrite issue

[mrtricksta]

Hi, i have an issue with some htaccess mod rewrite code, what i need the script to do is redirect http://www.domain.com/username to http://www.domain.com/profile.php?user=username which i got working but i need a exception if the page is for example http://www.domain.com/signup or http://www.domain.com/help

Currently i have this

Code: Select all

ErrorDocument 404 http://domain.com/

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^domain\.com

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://domain.com/ [R=302]

RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !help

RewriteRule ^([^/\.]+)/?$ profile.php?id=$1 [L]

Which kind of works but it goes to a sub folder which isn't what i want really

can anyone help???

Are /help and /signup directories or are you going to use mod_rewrite for those URLs too?

Try

Code: Select all

ErrorDocument 404 http://example.com/
Options +FollowSymLinks

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://example.com/$1 [R=301,L]

RewriteCond $1 !^(help|signup)$
RewriteRule ^([^/\.]+)/?$ /profile.php?id=$1 [L]

Which kind of works but it goes to a sub folder which isn't what i want really

What URL? What sub directory?
