Folder structure -public_html -magsandbox -app - pub - .... -magstage -app - pub - .... -magquality -app - pub - .... In public_html/.htaccess, I have following rule RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain.com$ [NC,OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.domain.com$ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !magstage/ RewriteRule (.*) /magstage/$1 [L] This has been working perfectly so far. domain.com redirect to domain.com/magstage behind the scenes and my site is accessible. But from SEO perspective I have a duplication issue. domain.com and domain.com/magstage are both accessible for crawling and both are the one and same magento installation. How can I allow the redirect to subfolder but at the same block the subfolder access? I tried various combination adding htaccess in root as well as in subfolder. either the site goes down OR goes in a loop with both redirecting to each other.
