For logistical reasons, I have to try something like this:
i) Create a category called sitetrack. This would be an overview.
ii) So category permalink would be: http://www.domain.com/sitetrack/
Next I want to set up a separate installation in folder called sitetrack.
So, the new installation would be at http://www.domain.com/sitetrack/ as well. Content of this instllation would be out of the main installation.
I wanna know what kind of problems can it create?
What overrides what? Does a mod_rewrite rule for permalink override a folder name?
you cant do that..it wont work
There are lines for mod_rewrite in your .htaccess file which go like this:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
the -f one tests if the path is a file, and the -d tests if it is a directory. So a folder name will override a permalink
still a bad idea, especially on a nix server :)

there is always no harm in trying. one can always give it a shot and see what happens. catchline being: NO HARM.
ochiba: that is what i wanted to know actually: what OVERRIDES what. since foldername will override permalink, i can try to find a different way of managing filenames :)
First of all: a category permalink should be: example.com/category/sidetrack - you can replace the word "category" with something else, but omitting it will make your life even more compliacted and on the long run is a call for disaster...
