Re: Hide folder in url

You really should consider moving everything in your new/frontend/ folders up to public_html. This is how CakePHP should be configured out of the box.

The reason your RewriteRules are not working is because they are AFTER the standard rules for CakePHP. The have no effect because the CakePHP Rewrite Rules have [L] which mean they each should be the last rule when they match - and, they match everything!

Do you have other content (non-CakePHP) that you want users to access in you document root (public_html)? This would be the only reason not to put your app folder in the document root.

You might (I did not test this) get it to work if you did something like replace the CakePHP RewriteRules with:

     RewriteRule ^$ new/frontend/app/webroot/ [L]

     RewriteRule (.*) new/frontend/app/webroot/$1 [L]

This will redirect every URL to your CakePHP app. You would get the same result if you just moved your app to your document root.
