how to Remove Sub directory name from URL with htaccess?

My URL was

http://demo.example.com/parentFolder/

but i have to redirect it to child folder, URL as

http://demo.example.com/parentFolder/ChildFolder/

i have redirect it in htaccess as

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>         RewriteEngine On        RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?demo.example.com/parentFolder$        RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/ChildFolder/          RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f        RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d         RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /ChildFolder/$1         #RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?demo.example.com/parentFolder$        RewriteRule ^(/)?$ ChildFolder/ [L]  </IfModule> 

but didn't remove sub folder(ChildFolder) from URL. i want to access childFolder after redirect but want to hide childFolder from URL.

You can use these rule in parentFolder/.htaccess:

RewriteEngine On  # remove ChildFolder from URL show in browser RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/+(parentFolder)/ChildFolder/(\S*)\s [NC] RewriteRule ^ /%1/%2 [R=301,NE,L]  # add ChildFolder internally  RewriteRule ^$ ChildFolder/ [L]  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule ^(?!ChildFolder/).*$ ChildFolder/$0 [L,NC]
