title: use .htaccess to redirect all requests but two
body: <p>I am new to this but I have the following .htaccess that works correctly:</p>
  
  <pre><code>RewriteEngine on
  RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^site\.com$
  RewriteRule (.*) http://www.site.com/$1 [R=301,L]
  RewriteRule ^$ /wordpress [L,R=301]
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This redirects anyone at site.com or www.site.com to go to www.site.come/wordpress
  However I have 2 directories that I need to ignore this rule:
  www.site.com/dir1
  www.site.com/dir2
  and these need to be ignored (not re-written even if they come without the www.)</p>
  
  <p><em>Edit:</em> It needs to ignore the directory AND files in the directory.
  so site.com/dir1 AND site.com/dir1/index.php should both be left alone.</p>
  
  <p>How can I do this?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!
  Chris</p>
