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 -----Original Message----- From: Igor GaliÄ [mailto:i.galic@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, January 06, 2011 8:23 AM To: users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Apache RewriteEngine ----- "Eric Covener" <covener@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > On Thu, Jan 6, 2011 at 10:40 AM, motty.cruz <motty.cruz@xxxxxxxxx> > wrote: > > 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).
