Yourls Swap Short Url

For tricky setups that require your short url to reside in a different location than your yourls installation

Example Cases

I want to use http://shorturl.com as my short url but I want to install it at http://shorturl.com/yourls/
I want to use http://sho.rt as my short url but I want to install it at http://longurl.sho.rt

Requirements

Yourls v1.7.4

Installation

place the /swap-short-url/ directory in yourls /user/plugins/ directory
in config.php point YOURLS_SITE to the location of your yourls installation
in config.php, at the very end, define the short url you wish to share with the public after "Personal settings..." Example: define( 'YOURLS_SHORT_URL', 'http://shorturl.com' );
Modify the .htaccess file at the location defined by YOURLS_SHORT_URL (see below)
Activate the plugin by clicking Manage Plugins at the top of the admin interface and then clicking Activate next to the Swap Short URL plugin

htaccess

You need to direct traffic from your defined short url to your yourls installation. To do this, create (or modify) an .htaccess file in the directory you defined as your YOURLS_SHORT_URL with the following:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

# BEGIN YOURLS

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

RewriteRule ^([0-9A-Za-z]+)/?$ http://shorturl.com/yourls/yourls-go.php?id=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^([0-9A-Za-z]+)\+/?$ http://shorturl.com/yourls/yourls-infos.php?id=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^([0-9A-Za-z]+)\+all/?$ http://shorturl.com/yourls/yourls-infos.php?id=$1&all=1 [L]

# END YOURLS
