.htaccess rules to have cakephp in root and wordpress in subfolder

Question

Hello,

How can I combine the .htaccess rules for cakephp

RewriteEngine on
   RewriteRule    ^$ app/webroot/    [L]
   RewriteRule    (.*) app/webroot/$1 [L]

with the following

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} folder.yoursite.com
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /folder [L]

in other words redirect anything to app/webroot/ except /blog (wich is an exisiting folder with a wordpress installation) and redirect blog.domain.com to the blog subfolder

Thank you very much

It should work automatically (at least with CakePHP 1.3), it's working for me...

My .htaccess looks like this

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
   RewriteEngine on
   RewriteRule    ^$ app/webroot/    [L]
   RewriteRule    (.*) app/webroot/$1 [L]
</IfModule>

You should also have a proper .htaccess in your wordpress (or any other application) folder that's not a part of the CakePHP application.
