Ok I have wordpress running and it has a bunch of rewrite rules

on the same site I have added a members section with its own .htaccess which is your standard require valid user htaccess file

problem is the directory is inheriting the rewrite rules of the parent

I tried adding rewriteengine off at the top of the .htaccess in the child but it didnt have any effect

how do i cancel the rewrite rules for the child so that my members area works (currently gets a 404 error that shows up in wordpress) even though the html file exists and is readable

if i do turn the rewriteengine off is there something I need to do to make apache see it? Im lost on this stuff

Thanks
