In my new job, I "inherited" a website that is completely implemented by WordPress. That is, every URL that starts with that http://www.myjobdomain.com is somehow redirected/generated by WordPress and, if a page does not exist in that location, it provided a 404.

I am now trying to add a "side site" to that domain, that is a web app (or a few html pages) that are outside that WordPress-based site.

Is there a way to accomplish that in IIS 6.0?

I know that in Apache I can play with .htaccess and redirect/rewrite rules to accomplish what I want. But in IIS 6.0 I could not find any way to do this.

If such a way exists, how would I go about to this? Any instruction or guidelines would be sincerely appreciated.

P.S. In my IIS Manager, I could not find any tabs alluded to by this answer.

To accomplish what you want, all you need is to right-click your site in IIS Manager and select Add Application....

Unless your site is already configured to relay all control to WP. In such case, you may want to look into Microsoft's URL Rewrite module/extension.

  • Thanks. I would only add that after installing that extension, I needed to exist IIS Manager, then restart it, to see the URL Rewriter's icon. – WinWin Mar 14 '16 at 17:34
