Multiple Blogs on same domain

I have seen this issue previously, but I’m not sure if the solutions apply here (and if they do, I’m not sure how I’d go about resolving them – namely, the renaming of databases so they don’t share the same prefix… my reselling provider seems to require account-name prefixes on every database)

But I have two blogs located at these fictitious urls:

https://www.url.com/blog1
https://www.url.com/blog2

They work fine from the start page, but I wish to use permanent links, and the rewrite rule I have present seems to guide which blog, settings and database is being accessed… when I click on the common ‘hello world’ initial entry in blog 2 with blog1 activated in htaccess file, it goes to blog1, and vice versa… obviously it works fine within the blog that’s active in the htaccess.

I’ve tried having a second rewriterule in the htaccess file, both inside and outside the little provided if statement, but it doesn’t want to recognize it, seeing only the first.

Is there a proper way to have two rewrite rules in the htaccess, or is that even possible?

Here is my htaccess code

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /blog1/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /blog1/index.php [L]
RewriteBase /blog2/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /blog2/index.php [L]
</IfModule>
