    Hi, I want to make a site, with WordPress powering my main site, and also make a blog with WordPress doing that as well. I've configured my settings like seen HERE. The reason I ask, is, on my main site, I'm doing some mini-loops that are getting incorporated into my RSS feed. I don't want that, I only want that for my BLOG. Thanks for your help in advance!

    main site blog
    all files and folders in /wordpress except
    index.php and .htaccess in root
    wordpress address :http://example.com/wordpress
    blog address: http://example.com
    instructions here:
    http://codex.wordpress.org/Giving_WordPress_Its_Own_Directory

    /blog (2nd blog)
    all files and folders in /blog including index.php and .htacces for this blog
    wordpress address :http://example.com/blog
    blog address: http://example.com/blog

    This will give you 2 functioning blogs one at http://example.com and one at http://example.com/blog

    you either need 2 databases or if you want to use just one database be sure and change the table_prefix in the wp-config.php in one of the installs

    Thanks for the explanation samboll. Is there a way to have just one installation instead of 2 here?
