Snippet - Exclude folder from htaccess rewrites

  • Type: Code Snippet
  • Compatible: Diverse
  • Last update: 2008-11-22

When you are running a CMS, or for example a Blog you might also have SEO url's enabled through .htaccess rewrites. A common problem with these rewrites can be that you are no longer able to install a second application in a subfolder since those foldernames are included in the rewrites and can cause 404 errors.

This is a Joomla! 1.5+ System Plugin that can help site designers and site owners to create a redesign of the site, make small or large changes or user test some specific new features.

Think about this, you have a site running but you are not happy with how the links look in your template. First thing you'd probably do in a situation like this is run some tests on your localhost to see what the effect is with different colors.

Snippet - A little Joomla! editor extended plugin tip

If you have trouble with your editor extended plugin buttons where the right side of the button isn't handled correctly by the Joomla! admin CSS.

Look at the snippets, "blank" is a class in the admin CSS file that will fix what's missing.
