redirect /index.php to /main/

I know this is a simple thing, I've been away from playing with websites so long I've forgotten. I have a website somesite.org (no it's not real) that I would like to have the somesite.org/main/. Tips?

BTW somesite.org/main is a wp install.

Put this at the top of index.php:

PHP Code:


			
<?php
header( "HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently" ); 
header('location:/main/');
exit();
?>

Do you want to redirect just index page or ALL subpages as well?

If your domain is hosted on Windows Server then you can directly set the redirection from the IIS. However, if your domain is hosted on Linux server then you will have to write the rewrite rule for redirection in your .htaccess file.
