 Hello,

I recently had to add to one of our domain a subdomain for a demonstration and noticed that due to the non-www to www redirection of Admintools on the main website, I could not reach this subdomain, the url being also redirected.

I managed to escape this situation by adding manually a second exception to the rewrite rule in the htaccess file (attached screenshot) but it means I have to maintain the file manually as I have no way to include this exception via the htaccess maker of Admintools.

It would be great in future versions to have a field allowing us to add such exceptions in the htaccess maker as it's quite a common case.

Have a nice day.

Hello,

did you try to add the subdomain folder to the "Allow direct access to this folder" inside the Htaccess Maker exceptions?

Hello,

That's the first thing I tried to do but, at the moment I did it, the url of my subdomain demo.app-n-web.ch was redirected to someting like http://www.app-n-web.ch/demo.app-n-web.ch/demo.app-n-web.ch...etc. triggering a too many redirect issue.

I then add the rewrite exception manually and it was working normally after.

I tried to reproduce this issue right now in order to give you the bad url correctly but I can't even if removing all exceptions.

It seems I encountered a temporary issue that has probably nothing to do with Admintools but due to the construction of the wrong url I really thought it came from the non-www to www redirect.

Sorry to annoy you with a ghost issue.

Have a nice day !
