The settings are:</p> <p>domain: foo.com<br /> sub directory: /foosub<br /> table prefix: foo_</p> <p>The first time I clicked install, it downloaded Magento to my computer. I have NO clue what that was about, so after trying again with the same result, changed the name of the directory and tried again. Now I get the error message that install.php has a redirect loop (using Firefox and Chrome; IE just kept trying) that will not resolve. I tried deleting cookies, etc., but nothing works. </p> <p>If it matters, I have single sign on in the add on folder. I deleted it and retried, but that made no difference.</p> <p>Any suggestions for me? </p> http://wp-hive.com/forums/topic/subdirectory-and-htaccess-indexphp-files#post-1073 Fri, 24 Sep 2010 15:47:16 +0000 janderso9980 1073@http://wp-hive.com/forums/ <p>I have read thru everything I can, but still unsure how to handle subdirectory installation. I have existing site named <a href="http://www.example.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.example.com</a>. My current blog is <a href="http://www.example.com/blog" rel="nofollow">http://www.example.com/blog</a>. I want to add additional blogs. I understand I have to move my Wordpress files to <a href="http://www.example.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.example.com</a>, but not sure how to deal w/ index.php file from Wordpress when I move files. I obviously don't want to overwrite my root index.php. I also tried installing the plugin before moving the files, and saw that it removed the lines below from the .htaccess file in /blog subdirectory:</p> <p>&lt;IfModule mod_rewrite.c&gt;<br /> RewriteEngine On<br /> RewriteBase /blog/<br /> RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]<br /> RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f<br /> RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d<br /> RewriteRule . /blog/index.php [L]<br /> &lt;/IfModule&gt;</p> <p>This gave me 404 errors throughout my blog.</p> <p>When I move the Wordpress files to root, do I need to make changes to .htaccess? I have an .htaccess file in the root director and another in the /blog subdirectory. Do I still keep one in the /blog directory? Do I keep any files in the /blog subdirectory. If I have to make changes to either .htaccess file, what changes?</p> <p>Sorry, for newbie ?s, but any advice greatly appreciated. </p> http://wp-hive.com/forums/topic/subdirectories#post-936 Thu, 13 May 2010 14:45:41 +0000 ikailo 936@http://wp-hive.com/forums/ <p>It all depends on the public facing URL.</p> <p>If you can access your site using this: <a href="http://domain.com" rel="nofollow">http://domain.com</a>, then it will work.</p> <p>Most hosts would allow you to point <a href="http://woodshed.domain.com" rel="nofollow">http://woodshed.domain.com</a> to a local folder /htdocs/woodshed/, and this also works just fine in any version of WP Hive.</p> <p>However, if you plan to access your site using <a href="http://domain.com/woodshed/" rel="nofollow">http://domain.com/woodshed/</a>, then it will not work with either the regular or PRO version. </p> http://wp-hive.com/forums/topic/subdirectories#post-933 Wed, 12 May 2010 21:58:18 +0000 Woodshed 933@http://wp-hive.com/forums/ <p>I use Network Solutions for my hosting and they automatically dump all files into a subdirectory of the root called /htdocs. I added my blog to my website - didn't want it to replace existing content so WP and all its stuff went into /htdocs/woodshed. If I purchase the Pro version of Hive will it be compatible with this set-up? I intend to add a second blog which will also have to be a subdirectory ie: /htdocs/blog2. </p> http://wp-hive.com/forums/topic/subdirectory-issues#post-917 Tue, 20 Apr 2010 23:14:06 +0000 Jon Gauthier 917@http://wp-hive.com/forums/ <p>Hey there </p> <p>Thanks for using the plugin we are looking into the issue and will get the updated pro version to you this week. </p> http://wp-hive.com/forums/topic/subdirectory-issues#post-910 Fri, 16 Apr 2010 07:56:11 +0000 thinker 910@http://wp-hive.com/forums/ <p>My current system for 2/3 domains to share one installation works great - I just use the same prefix for the new domains as the existing domain and all redirects work fine. </p> <p>I know this could cause duplicate content issues w/ goog but it doesn't really matter all that much, its a corporate site w/ no ads.</p> <p>The issue is that I need to redirect a subdirectory to the main directory, since the domain is already 'parked' on the base, the only thing I could think of was to add a new site with the subdirectory and the same prefix, this doesn't work at all. </p> <p>Is there any other method to do this?</p> <p>Also, I paid for the pro version, was hoping for the new code and upgrade instructions but haven't received them yet, have sent you an email about this too.</p> <p>Thanks for a great plugin, cheers! </p> http://wp-hive.com/forums/topic/how-do-i-access-my-other-blogs#post-906 Thu, 08 Apr 2010 14:43:24 +0000 Jon Gauthier 906@http://wp-hive.com/forums/ <p>To access the SiteHive you created<br /> all you do is type in <a href="http://www.yoursite.com/subblog/wp-admin" rel="nofollow">http://www.yoursite.com/subblog/wp-admin</a> You will be brought to the login screen </p> http://wp-hive.com/forums/topic/how-do-i-access-my-other-blogs#post-903 Mon, 05 Apr 2010 23:40:22 +0000 RogueGuy 903@http://wp-hive.com/forums/ <p>Hi!

I am happy to report that ithacatype.com/main and ithacatype.com/news exist. I also see a third site name, plain old ithacatype.com with the table prefix wp_. I'm not managing three blogs, just the two: main &amp; news. Can I delete that third one safely? I am wary to do so as the plugin is working great finally.<br /> Also, quick question. One can be logged into a single admin panel at a time, correct? </p> http://wp-hive.com/forums/topic/help-me-understand-please#post-842 Mon, 01 Mar 2010 21:59:28 +0000 teepeecee 842@http://wp-hive.com/forums/ <p>Thanks for the query. These are about as clear a set of instructions I have found to implement this plugin.

My website will have the main home page <a href="http://www.example.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.example.com</a>, and the main blog will be installed at root level. The rest of the many blogs will be simply installed in subdirectories, such as example.com/blog1, example.com/blog2, example.com/blog3. Depending on how well this website concept goes, this might go up to example.com/blog500, or maybe more! </p> <p>I don't want to set up a subdomain with GoDaddy for each of these subdiroctories. It is enough that I can link to them as <a href="http://www.example.com/blog1/" rel="nofollow">http://www.example.com/blog1/</a> (and not as blog1.example.com). </p> <p>I have installed WP, than installed WP Hive, then went to WP Hive &gt; Add New. On that page I did it this way:</p> <p>Domain name: example.com<br /> Sub Directory: /test1</p> <p>Prefix: test1_</p> <p>Then it asks me to install it, and I do so. Then I log into the new site.</p> <p>I've made 4 test blogs this way.</p> <p>Question 1: How do I get to the Dashboard of each created blog?</p> <p>Question 2: Is it perfectly OK to make extra blogs in this way?</p> <p>Thanks! </p> http://wp-hive.com/forums/topic/is-wp-hive-meant-to-be-on-a-subdirectory#post-745 Tue, 19 Jan 2010 21:34:18 +0000 ikailo 745@http://wp-hive.com/forums/ <p>You could install WP Hive on an existing WP Site. </p> <p>In fact, it works quite well in that situation.

I'm not that smart so sorry if this sounds dumb. What you're saying is I shouldn't have it in a subdirectory so for me, I shouldn't use this plugin as I can't install it in the root cause my original wordpress install is there? is that correct?

I seem to have some issues, some minor (logs me out, sometimes have trouble logging in) some a little more major (sometimes can't log in, can't leave comments on wphive site). Just wondering, was this meant to be in a subdirectory or was it meant only for its own domain or for its subdomain? I'm just now getting visitors to the wphive site and would rather delete the wp-hive and start fresh with a new wordpress install if the plugin wasn't built for what I'm doing. Don't get me wrong.. I'm not complaining. This is a great plugin and I can see how it woudl be perfect for some. But right now, the only benefit for me is I don't have to update 2 installs.. but that hassle doesn't outweigh the issues for me.
