htaccess remove directory from url and keep access parent directory

Question

Folder and file structures

public_html/
           web/index.php
           upload/img.jpg

I need mysite.com/web/index.php to become mysite.com/index.php This is my htaccess

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^$ web/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ web/$1

it works perfectly for me. but i can't access directory "upload/img.jpg" anymore. can i still access mysite.com/upload/img.jpg ?

Thank you in advance for your time.

Kind regards.

Answer 1

You can try this rule instead:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule !^(web|upload) web%{REQUEST_URI} [L,NC]

This will skip this rule if requested URI is for /web/ or /upload/

Answer 2

Now I can answer my question.

This is .htaccess in folder /public_html/

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^$ web/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ web/$1

and this is .htaccess in folder /public_html/web/

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule    ^uploads/(.*)  /uploads/$1 [PT]
