Hi David
As you know we have a multiple PT installation setup under one domain, in the root we have the following rewrite rule to ensure search engines only spider the www. alias and avoid duplicates.
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^oursite\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.oursite.com/$1 [R=301,L]
This works fine on all none pt pages but where we have the following rules for each installation the above rule no longer functions and individuals are able to link to http://oursite.com/products.php?q= etc. Is it possible to alter the rule below to include the above rule
Options -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /compare-uk/bodycare-haircare/
RewriteRule ^product/(.*).html$ products.php?q=$1&rewrite=1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
RewriteRule ^review/(.*).html$ reviews.php?q=$1&rewrite=1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
RewriteRule ^merchant/$ merchants.php
RewriteRule ^merchant/(.*)/$ search.php?q=merchant:$1:&rewrite=1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
RewriteRule ^merchant/(.*)/(.*).html$ search.php?q=merchant:$1:&page=$2&rewrite=1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
RewriteRule ^category/$ categories.php
RewriteRule ^category/(.*)/$ search.php?q=category:$1:&rewrite=1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
RewriteRule ^category/(.*)/(.*).html$ search.php?q=category:$1:&page=$2&rewrite=1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
RewriteRule ^brand/$ brands.php
RewriteRule ^brand/(.*)/$ search.php?q=brand:$1:&rewrite=1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
RewriteRule ^brand/(.*)/(.*).html$ search.php?q=brand:$1:&page=$2&rewrite=1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
Thanks

Hi David
Tried that, can't get it to work, still returns address without www.

Hi Chris,
Ah - it may need to go after RewriteBase, and include the sub-dir, e.g.
RewriteBase /compare-uk/bodycare-haircare/
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^oursite\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.oursite.com/compare-uk/bodycare-haircare/$1 [R=301,L]Cheers,
David.

If the above doesn't work for you, try changing the beginning of the last line.
RewriteBase /compare-uk/bodycare-haircare/
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^oursite\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.oursite.com/compare-uk/bodycare-haircare/$1 [R=301,L]What worked for us...
Hi Chris,
Exactly the same 2 lines;
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^oursite\.com$ [NC]RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.oursite.com/$1 [R=301,L]
...can go after the RewriteEngine On line in the individual .htaccess of each Price Tapestry installation, that should do the trick!
Cheers,
David.
