    Hey guys,

    Not sure what this code is actually doing :

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

    I know it’s a URL rewrite rule, but what is it actually doing?

    Can anyone “translate” in plain English? ??

    Thanks!

    What it’s doing it teling your server that any URL that’s “not found” in the normal file system should be diverted to WordPress to let WordPress take care of it and serve out the correct content for that URL.
