Re: Change from ~username to /username questions

Greetings Yehuda,

1.) You can try something likfe this for one url:

RewriteRule ^~blog/(.*)$ /site/legacy/users/blog/$1 [R=301,L]

2.) You can also play with this rewrite to make fit for you:

RewriteEngine On

#RewriteLog logs/rewrite.log # Uncomment for rewrite logging

#RewriteLogLevel 3 # uncomment for verbose logging

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/([^/]+)

RewriteCond /home/%1 -d

RewriteRule ^/([^/]+)(.*) /home/$1/public_html/$2

Thanks,

Otis

mod_userdir does not support this. You would have to create a symlink for each user.

Off the top of my head, you might be able to work around it with mod_rewrite, but I can't test any rules now, so I don't want to try writing one.

Has anyone changed access to personal web sites from 

website.com/~username 

 to

website.com/username

And still use 

/home/username/public_html

As the home web directories?

If so, can you share your method?

Thanks
