Reset htacces for sub-folders

Question

I have a htacces file in my root folder with some basic code in it. But I want that all those instructions get ignored in the directory \"voxelforum.com\". How can I achive

Answer 1

It depends on what rules you want to override:

If you want to disable rewrite rules, then you can put a .htaccess file in the subfolder that contains RewriteEngine On, and the rules for the parent folder will be disabled (technically, replaced).

Similarly, if you want to disable authentication for a subfolder, you can create a .htaccess that contains Satisfy Any.

.htaccess rules cascade upwards, so Apache will look for a .htaccess file in the current folder and use the rules for it, then check the parent folder, etc.
