Remove 404

  • I have a website where if I go to something like /cpanel it redirects me to a server side site… but… after wordpress install I can no longer do that… it takes me to wordpresses 404 page instead? any way I can change that? There is no custom 404 page pointed in my htaccess..
    thanks

    maybe this has to deal with how WP handles sub directories?

    WordPress takes over anything that is not a real directory or file and /cpanel/ is not — it’s a fake directory.

    Does it redirect you somewhere or is the URL in your address bar yoursite.com/cpanel/? If it does redirect, then just add this to your .htaccess file, ABOVE the WordPress rules:

    Redirect /cpanel/ https://new.url.com/whatever/

    Anyone?
    Does anyone understand what I am talking about? Need more explination?

    Perhaps you should read my post…

    I’m having the same problem. Since my wordpress index.php is in the root folder ALL sub folders that are password protected under my new host won’t allow the ‘password’ box to appear. It deafults to 404 wordpress error, any htaccess command for that? tx
