I currently have a cms which builds microsites in subdirectories. So the mainsite is the root and each subsite is in a subdirectory.
eg root = www.mainsite.org
microsite = www.mainsite.org/microsite
I'm currently buying and parking domains on the mainsite's hosting space. I have it set up so that when the user types in www.microsite.org they are redirected to www.mainsite.org/microsite using the following in my htaccess
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^microsite.org$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^microsite.org$
RewriteRule ^/?$ "http\:\/\/mainsite\.org\/microsite" [R=301,L]
can I also mask the url so that www.mainsite.com/microsite appears in the url bar as www.microsite.org - allowing each of the microsites to retain individual identity. I own the domains for each of the microsites
I don't necessarily need a blanket rule, I'm happy to add new code for each microsite.
By the way, I don't really understand htaccess editing - am pretty new to it, so specific answers would be hugely appreciated. I've searched for answers, but don't think I've found any that are masking the root in this way - most seem to hide the subdirectories.
thanks
