[pmwiki-users] mod_rewrite problem

[James DeVain]

Hi. Sorry that this is such a long post, but I wanted to get everything out
there the first time. Basically, I'm trying to use mod_rewrite to shorten
my URLs, but in a way that doesn't seem to be covered on "Clean URLs" page.

I have a wiki farm. Currently, it's set up like this:

my index.php file looks like this:

<?php include('zuhsfarm/pmwiki.php');

and is in the root folder, as is the farm directory. Each feild is in its
own directory, which is in the root folder. So the basic structure is:

/.htaccess
/index.php
/zuhsfarm/pmwiki.php
/zuhsfarm/farmconfig.php
/thisfeild/
/thatfeild/

This is what I have in "/.htaccess":

# Use mod_rewrite to enable "Clean URLs" for a PmWiki installation.
RewriteEngine On
# Send http:// request to http://www.
RewriteCond %{http_HOST} ^zuhs\.com
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://www.zuhs.com/$1 [L,R=301]
# Define the rewrite base.
RewriteBase /
# Send requests without parameters to pmwiki.php.
RewriteRule ^$           index.php  [L]
# Send requests for index.php to pmwiki.php.
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ index.php  [L]
# Send requests to pmwiki.php, appending the query string part.
RewriteRule ^([^/a-z].*) index.php?n=$1  [QSA,L]


and this is what I have in "/thisfeild/.htaccess":

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /thisfield/
RewriteCond %{http_HOST} ^zuhs\.com 
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://www.zuhs.com/testeee/$1 [L,R=301]
RewriteRule ^$           index.php  [L]
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ index.php  [L]
RewriteRule ^([^/a-z].*) index.php?n=$1  [QSA,L]


Also, this is what I have in "/thisfield/index.php"

<?php include('../zuhsfarm/pmwiki.php');


Thus, "thisfield" is reachable at "www.zuhs.com/thisfield"


It all works fine, but here's my problem: I would *rather* have all of
the fields in a single folder named "feilds", like:

/feilds/thisfeild
/feilds/thatfeild

- but have them still be reachable at URLs like "zuhs.com/thisfeild"
(rather than "zuhs.com/feilds/thisfeild".

I've been banging my head against this mod_rewrite wall all day, but I just
can't get anything to work. Anyone know how I can do this? Any help would
be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
