i tried to use wordpress and codeigniter for a intelligent join between the best CMS and the best PHP Framework. Actually i intended to use codeigniter for database managemnent and wordpress for display. But i wanted to use codeigniter inside wordpress. So, i have a file tree like that:
www
- codigniter-core folder
- .htaccess
- wordpress-core folder
- .htaccess
- index.php
How can i make the wordpress .htaccess to cover also the codeigniter ant not trowing 404 error in jquery ajax call. My current wordpress .htaccess file it’s:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
#RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond $1 !^/codeigniter-core/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]
I also tried to ask this to WordPress Forums and Codeigniter Forums, but no answer. I think it’s hell of a rewrite condition or rule, but i don’t know …
I had this problem when creating a controller file that I would call via the jQuery ajax method. This controller file included wp-blog-header.php.
When you include the wp-blog-header.php in a file outside of WP framework WordPress does a check on the current file, and if it is not in its database it returns a 404. The work around is to add a 200 status header after the wp-blog-header.php.
Now (jQuery) ajax to the file returns properly without a 404.
This worked great… can’t tell you how long I was looking for this answer. I suspected this had to do with a header error because firebug showed the response but the header had a 404. Thanks this saved me a lot of time.
BTW I used this to fix the Quick Search plugin by Giulio Ganci
Just open the “search.php” file in the plugin folder and add
Right after the first line of code. When your done the first few lines of code in this file should look like this
