I have a subdomain
I would like to redirect it to subdirectory as
But not admin(/wp-admin). Admin area should be as it is
currently I have this in my htaccess
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /blog/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /blog/index.php [L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Host}i ^example\
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^blog\.example\$
RewriteRule ^/?(.*)$ /$1 [L,R=301,NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Proto} !https
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^/?(.*)$ /$1 [L,R=301,NC]
</IfModule>
and my site URL and WordPress URL is:
WordPress Address (URL) = /blog
Site Address (URL) =
but this setup redirects every URLs in my website and creating many issues in the backend.
What is the best ways to do this?

Reset to default 2Use below rule,
RewriteEngine On
# excluding www
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^blog
# excluding wp-admin
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^wp-admin
RewriteRule ^ https://www.example/%1
Have you tried the following?
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url=https://www.example/blog" />
</head>
</html>
This would be your index.php file, and you would place it in http://blog.example
Note
The 0 in the refresh statement is the number of seconds your page waits before redirecting to a new site, and 0 means redirect immediately.
Note 2 You can make a new theme, that only contains this index.php file above (and the style.css file for theme definition), and switch to this theme, and you will be set. Alternatively, update your existing theme, and add the meta tag above to your header. Either way should work.
