# .htaccess redirection

 * Hi to the wordpress community,
 * I used a subdomain to make a preview website and I used the .htaccess technique
   to redirect it to the main domain afterwards using this code:
 *     ```
       RewriteEngine on
       RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^artfutura.org\.org$
       RewriteRule (.*) http://artfutura.org/$1 [R=301,L] 
       RewriteRule ^$ 2016 [L]
       ```
   
 * My problem is that it is redirecting to the URL artfutura.org/2016
    It should
   get the wordpress files from the ftp /2016 folder but then the URL should be 
   artfutura.org without /2016
 * I continue to dig for solutions as I am stuck there :-/ Please help 🙂
