[users@httpd] Apache RewriteEngine
Hello,
I have Apache 2.2 installed on FreeBSD 8.1, and would like to restrict
content from /wp-content/media to be re-direct to / (root of directory). Any
suggestions, of how to best accomplish that goal?
Thanks, any help appreciated,
-Motty
RE: [users@httpd] Apache RewriteEngine
Posted by "motty.cruz" <mo...@gmail.com>.
I have pdf files under /wp-content/media/guides/guide1.pdf
In order for users to see those pdf files they have to login we have set up a login page. However if they go directly to www.domain.com/wp-content/media/guides/guide1.pdf Apache should re-direct them to the login page, but it is not re-directing people to the login page.
My goal is that if someone goes directly to www.domain.com/wp-conetnt/media/guides/guide1(or2).pdf they should be re-redirect to the login page.
So far this is what I have, if the cookie is present they should be able to view any content in directory above mentioned.
RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} !login_cookie=true
RewriteRule .* /wp-content/media/
Please help!,
Thanks,
-motty

Hello Igor,
I tried your suggestion but did not because I want people to view files in /wp-content/media/ only if they have a cookie( if they login). The suggested
RedirectMatch ^/wp-content/media/ / <-- won't let me see files in /wp-content/media even if I succefully log in.
I tried this furum, is exactly what I want to do however the last
http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum92/424.htm
rewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} uin
rewriteRule ^/.*$ /main.html [L
does not seem to function for me, any ideas?
Thanks,
-motty

If you want them all to go directly to the root
RedirectMatch ^/wp-content/media/ /
If the files are actually under the root and you want to preserve what
came after media/:
Redirect /wp-content/media/ /
