How to use with WP site .htaccess

[davids701124]

Hi thanks for making this useful plugin.

I tried to use this with my WP site. My WP site install in the root and Yourls installed in the subfolder. When I use this together. For example, if I make google.com to mysite.com/g. The shorten url will be point to WP's 404 page. I think it's because this line

RewriteRule . /index.php [L]

I tried to comment it out, the shorten url will work. However, all links on my site won't work anymore. For example

mysite.com/about
mysite.com/works/01

I'm not an expert for .htaccess configuration. Could you guide me is there a way to make this work. How should I rewrite the rule? Thank you.

The original .htaccess is following

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

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

RewriteRule ^([0-9A-Za-z]+)/?$ http://mysite.com/yourl/yourls-go.php?id=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^([0-9A-Za-z]+)\+/?$ http://mysite.com/yourl/yourls-infos.php?id=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^([0-9A-Za-z]+)\+all/?$ http://mysite.com/yourl/yourls-infos.php?id=$1&all=1 [L]

# END YOURLS

Hi there.
Quite some time ago, I have encountered a similar issue. I am hosting YOURLS on subdomain, but with little changes it should also work for folder on main domain. This is the relevant part of my .htaccess to your question.

RewriteEngine On
## BEGIN YOURLS     
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^links.mysite.net
    RewriteRule ^([0-9A-Za-z]+)\+/?$ http://links.mysite.net/$1+ [L]     

    RewriteBase /
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule ^([0-9A-Za-z]+)/?$ http://links.mysite.net/yourls-go.php?id=$1 [L]
    RewriteRule ^([0-9A-Za-z]+)\+/?$ http://links.mysite.net/yourls-infos.php?id=$1 [L]
    RewriteRule ^([0-9A-Za-z]+)\+all/?$ http://links.mysite.net/yourls-infos.php?id=$1&all=1 [L]
# END YOURLS

# BEGIN WordPress
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]

    # add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
    RewriteRule ^wp-admin$ wp-admin/ [R=301,L]

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^domains.mysite.net [NC]
    RewriteRule ^ - [L]
    RewriteRule ^(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $1 [L]
    RewriteRule ^(.*\.php)$ $1 [L]
    RewriteRule . index.php [L]
# END WordPress
