How setup WordPress blog under Rails’s /public directory

1. Add a rewrite rule to both httpd.conf and /public/.htaccess file:


RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/blog.*
RewriteRule .* - [L]


2. Switch blog url from WordPress admin and add this to /public/.htaccess:

RewriteEngine OnRewriteBase /blog/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /blog/index.php [L]

If you deployed your rails app using Passenger(mod_rails), you need to add this to make /blog url work:


<Location /blog>
PassengerEnabled off
</Location>
