Basic Joomla SEF and 'external' link

[balooka]

Hi

I have the basic Joomla SEF working nicely, and everything resolves to URLs like www.domain.com/venues - www.domain.com/contact etc. This is perfect, however, I have a folder called stats (provided by my host, running Analog) and I can't reach the folder! Joomla thinks that www.domain.com/stats is a joomla site so it starts to look for it and returns an errormessage.

The htaccess file needs to be modified, but I have no clue where to start. Anyone any hints?

Thanks!

Something like :

Code: Select all

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/stats$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/stats/(.*)

Should prevent .htaccess from rewriting the directory.

Thanks malahost

I've figured it out already

All I did was add this to the conditions:

Code: Select all

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/stats/(.*)$ 
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/failed_auth.html$
