I' m tring to install Multisite in my wordpress 3.0 but i stopped the installing process at following point (*) cause i don' tknow what will happen to my blog structure and permalinks.
I enalble multisite adding row of code suggested in wp-config.php and
this is the displayed page after clikking Tools>>Network in Admin Panel:
( *)Create a Network of WordPress Sites
As you can see i have only the sub-domain option 'cause mine is not a new installing one.
So what will happen to my customized permalink and categories base of my main blog if i choose install button?
Thanks

Nothing. That's why it's not letting you pick subfolders, which MIGHT break things :)
Ok thanks Ipstenu
BUT
main blog i.e. the blog already installed
will change URL for example in:
firstblog.mydomain.it or what?
Thanks
I don't think so, but I haven't used subdomains in a while and I forget what happens when you switch to them.
For subdomains, nothing.
The only reason why subfolder installs stuff the /blog/ in there is to prevent permalink collisions, like if you have a page called /magazines/ and made a site called /magazines/. How do you tell the difference?
Hi andrea,
in my opinion the wordpress advice mentioned in opening post of this discussion isn' t clear.
It could be that english/ american isn't my mother tongue, but this advice before says that multisite allowed are only sub-domains,
but going on with installing process as i done yesterday, you discover that sub directoris installing of other sites are available.
It' s my first time using this kind of features...
It depends on your setup. :)
If you have an older install, it disallows subdirectories.
On new installs, it allows both.
