title: htaccess: Redirect entire subfolder to root
body: <p>My site uses Wordpress as a CMS and it's installed in a subfolder already but I set it up to display on the root domain. Basically, <strong>example.com</strong> displays the contents of <strong>example.com/wordpress</strong>.</p>
  
  <p>The old (static) website was also in a subfolder and I need to redirect that entire subfolder (folder and all contents) back to the root - e.g. point <strong>example.com/oldwebsite</strong> to <strong>example.com</strong>.</p>
  
  <p>I've tried lots of different approaches and I just can't get it to work.</p>
