🐛 [BUG] - The changes in the Htaccess file, made by is_themecore, delete any changes made by other modules or customizations

Description

Hi
I report a problem with is_themecore. When it does some updates into htaccess remove all extra code present at the top of htaccess

in some case there are extra modules like scaledevmanomano that add some directives
or in some cases I use

RewriteEngine on RewriteBase / RewriteRule ^shop/(.*)$ /$1 [R=301,NC,L]

because the website was inside the folder "shop"

each time I do some changes into is_themecore or from prestashop seo page, I need to add again that code inside htaccess. Without is_themecore I don't get this problem

Is it possible to reduce the range of action inside the Htaccess file?

thanks

Hi @maofree,

thank you for creating an issue.
I was able to reproduce the problem. I am adding this issue to is_themecore module roadmap.
We are not writing contentBefore during generation process.
You can add here this code here

$this->write($this->contentBefore);

This should resolve your problem.

Hi
yes now that problem is fixed, but I've seen another little problem in that htaccess regeneration
at each saving (pushing inside the module configuration) it adds a new line at the start and a new line at the end

from one line, after two saving there are 3 lines

Hi @maofree,

I will take a look at this when I work on is_themecore v5.
TBH it's not a big deal just a new line, it doesn't break anything, so it's like a minor problem.
