Thanks! Not exactly what I had in mind (I don’t particularly want the landing page to be wordpress at all) but it gets the desired effect.

This method still requires that I use wordpress’ index.php; what I need is to have the static, non-wordpress index.php load when people visit my site but still have blog functionality – and I also need WP in the root in order to have multiple domains run from the same setup.

My current setup is that I have my non-WP site in the root, and I use WP in a subdirectory. For reasons unknown, I can’t run multiple domains from that subdirectory; WP requires the installation be in the root (which is extremely aggravating!)

How can I get the two programs to run side-by-side without interfering with the existing, non-WP index.php?

Maybe I’m missing something; isn’t the rewrite function geared more toward replacing text? Something like replacing “tv” with “television” automatically? Can I do that for the separate node?

I figured it out, thanks to the support forums ?? Durr, how does this internet thing work again?!?

In my header file I was calling the absolute URL:

https://www.myawesomesite.com/flash/myflash.swf

when what I SHOULD HAVE done was tell the code the SWF file was on the same domain:

../flash/myflash.swf

That simple, worked like a charm.
