Permalink conflicting with my own custom directories..?? (1 post)

    I've got WordPress installed to the root directory of my website on my server. I did not have permalinks enabled when I first configured it.

    I have a custom shopping cart that I built outside of WP (which I would probably do different now, but it's too late for this project) and it has a control panel in a subdirectory, /cp.

    So, when I would load http://www.domain.com it would load WP, and when I would load http://www.domain.com/cp it would load my own custom control panel for the shopping cart.

    For SEO purposes, I wound up enabling permalinks, but now my control panel won't load because it's looking for a page or post called cp instead of actually loading my subdirectory like it should.

    What's strange is that even if I disable permalinks now it still doesn't work.

    Is there a way I can adjust my .htaccess file so it does all the usual WP rewrites for everything except for /cp?

    Any information on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
