I hope this is the correct place to post this.

I'm using wordpress and have the following setup:
Main site:
public_html/wordpress/
Second site:
public_html/wordpress/second

There are two domains. One which points to the first site (lets call this www.first.com) and likewise with the second.

The second site can be accessed using either:
http://www.first.com/second
or
http://www.second.com

I've basically moved the second site to a new location which I don't want/need google to know and am using the 410 (Gone) error code to do so. I edited the .htaccess code inside of public_html/wordpress/second to reflect a 410 and this works mostly perfectly.

When you try to access http://www.second.com it returns a 410 error code and says the site has been removed. However, when you access the site using http://www.first.com/second this returns a 404 error code to first.com

Does anyone know what the correct way to set this up? I can provide the respective htaccess codes if that helps.

Hope this is clear and thanks for any help that anyone can provide.

You should do that with a rewrite rule and define a condition rule that the 410 is only for that path or domain.
