I've just copied my WordPress site's index.php and .htaccess to the root of my domain from /blog/ so that it will appear in the root, while the files stay in a folder. The problem is that I've tried to create page called /blog for my posts to appear on, but it's not working as I get a redirect loop instead. The .htaccess file of the root currently reads: <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase /blog/ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /blog/index.php [L] AddHandler x-httpd-php5 .php AddHandler x-httpd-php .php4 </IfModule> Redirect /Search-Engine-Optimisation-Consultant-CV-SEO-SEM-PPC-Analytics.htm/ http://seocv.co.uk/seocv.html Redirect /Search-Engine-Optimisation-Consultant-CV-SEO-SEM-PPC-Analytics.htm http://seocv.co.uk/seocv.html Redirect /blog/copy-of-the-proposed-congress-banking-bailout-bill/ http://www.marketappeal.co.uk/index.php Redirect /blog/links-information-straight-from-the-source-1549/ http://www.marketappeal.co.uk/index.php Redirect /blog/website-design-competition-prize-100-commercial-property-website/ http://www.marketappeal.co.uk/index.php Redirect /) http://www.marketappeal.co.uk/blog/index.php # BEGIN WordPress <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] </IfModule> # END WordPress That's clearly a mess, which bit's don't I need please?
