Sub-Domain Issue

Can't get it to work on my sub-domain without the /wiki folder

https://wiki.xenogamers.org/wiki/

I want it to run on https://wiki.xenogamers.org without showing the /wiki/ part.

How can I achieve this?

Then /wiki is part of the Wiki Base URL, which you should remove anyway as it's not allowed there. There is nowhere else it can come from.

Well I get a redirection error in FireFox and chrome. It is not part of the Wiki Base URL. I'm using the .htaccess settings it recommended for me to use D:

https://wiki.xenogamers.org is the following:
Also its located at /home/xeno/public_html/wiki

Code:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /


RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)?$ showwiki_proxy.php [L,QSA]

https://xenogamers.org is the following:
Also its located at /home/xeno/public_html

Code:

RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule ^showwiki.php?title=(.*)$ https://wiki.xenogamers.org/$1 [L,R=301]

I believe your site might be redirecting domain.com/ to domain.com (no forward slash). The wiki directory will always be prefixed with a / even if the title is empty. If you are redirecting the / away, the wiki will keep trying to access its root page which does contain a / (hence the infinite redirect loop)

Please exclude the wiki subdomain from this redirect rule wherever you have it set.

Where would that sort of rule be defined since I'm a bit perplexed D:

My mistake, it looks to be functioning correctly after all.

Another question is, have you modified the /wiki/vw_config.php file to match your wiki settings?

Yes I had to change the vb location from ../vb to ../ What else would I look for?

If you are using Simple Wiki URLs, the VW_SIMPLE_URLS define needs to be set to 1, else it will forward to showwiki.php, which would forward back to the domain root, if Simple Wiki URLs are actually enabled in the settings menu.
