    I have some static HTML pages that I uploaded to a server that has Wordpress installed and when I call those static pages, I get the Wordpress 404 error - I did not want to create these pages with Wordpress - does anyone know a way around that to allow my pages to load without moving Wordpress outside my root? Followng is my htaccess:

    # BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress
    Code (markup):
    Thanks!

    I found a quick fix to just create a subdomain that holds all the static pages, but if someone has a work around to house them on my root domain that they can share, I would appreciate it!

    Untested, and mod_rewrite isn't my strong point - but this should work:

    

RewriteRule html-file.html html-file.html [L]
RewriteRule html-file2.html html-file2.html [L]
RewriteRule html-file3.html html-file3.html [L]

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress
