Topic: Excluding a folder or subfolder in .htaccess
Hi,
I've tries most of the possible ways to exclude a directory from Rewrite rule in .htaccess. But it is not working. Neither is subfolder .htaccess taking over the parent.
I want to exclude "public/uploads/newfolder"
Help please!
Current .htaccess is default monstra.
