title: Mod_Rewrite hiding directory
body: <p>I am having little issue with mod_rewrite rule. The rule seem to be working but blocks access to the directory and its files.</p>
  
  <p>Here is what i want to accomplish</p>
  
  <pre><code>www.example.com/about-us/  *** Parent rule
  
  www.example.com/about-us/our-mission.html *** child rule
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Although, my rule is accomplishing this but blocking access to the physical file and directory on the server.</p>
  
  <p>On the same server i have admin interface where user need to access to make changes...</p>
  
  <pre><code>www.example.com/manage/dash.php
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>When i attempt to access the directory /manage or its is files, i am redirected to 404 page that is a redirected  generated by the child rewrite rule.</p>
  
  <p>When i comment out the child rewrite rule i am able to access these mentioned but with child rule, access is blocked. </p>
  
  <p>Please see my rewrite code below and help me identify the issue.</p>
  
  <pre><code> RewriteEngine On
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
  
  
   #This rule will rewrite url to the main page www.example.com/about-us
   RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/?$ index.php?get_parent=$1 [L]
  
  #This rule  will rewrite url to the secondary url www.example.com/abou-us/our-mission.html
  RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/([^/]+)/?$ index.php?get_parent=$1&amp;get_child=$2 [L]
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Thank you.</p>
