Loading index.php contents which located outside blog folder for post single page

2 Views

I’m creating blog page as WordPress for my static PHP website. When blog page URL changes to pretty permalink (example.com/blog/my-post-page), loading contents (not redirecting to index.php, only contents loading and URL will be like http://example.com/blog/my-post-page) of index.php (home page for my site) that is located outside blog folder instead of single.php contents.

When permalink changes to default (example.com/blog/?p=123), it will work perfectly.

I need URL as http://example.com/blog/my-post-page.

EDIT : – I have updated permalink to Custom Structure as /index.php/%postname%/. But now post pages are showing with example.com/blog/index.php/my-post-page.

I think the issue raised with the new WordPress version. (Version 4.2.2).
Any solutions to remove index.php from URL ?

My Directory Structure:- 

/                                          - Root
/blog                                      - Blog folder
/blog/wp-content/themes/mytheme/           - Theme folder
/blog/wp-content/themes/mytheme/single.php - Post Single page

/index.php                                 - Home page (Loading contents of this file)

My htaccess :- 

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /blog/
RewriteRule ^index.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

When I delete/rename index.php in root folder, page will show not found error.

  1. in htaccess you can write any regex expression for url rewrite
    in your case

    RewriteRule ^/blog/(.+)$ /blog/index.php?postname=$1

    this line means that if url starts with /blog/ anything after / would be passed to /blog/index.php as postname parameter.
    example.com/blog/my-post-page would be rewritten as example.com/blog/index.php?postname=my-post-page

    you can exclude anything from this rule

    for example let’s exclude this: /blog/wp-content/themes/mytheme/
    it would go like this:

    RewriteRule ^(?!/(.+)/(.+)/(.+)/(.+))/blog/(.+)$ /blog/index.php?postname=$1

  2. It should work

    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /blog/
RewriteRule ^index.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

  3. You need to make two changes here, change permalink to /%postname%/.

    and change .htaccess to following

    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /blog/
    RewriteRule ^index.php$ - [L]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /blog/index.php [L]
</IfModule>
