WordPress.org

   Based on a generally dysfunctional development process, I've ended up creating a 2nd wordpress blog in a subdirectory of a first. So, basically I have 1 WP install at http://mysite.com/ and another at http://mysite.com/sub/.

   The 2nd install in the sub directory is running on its own database, and everything seems to be working - except for pretty permalinks on the install in the sub directory.

   I assume this is a .htaccess issue, but can't get much beyond that. If I enable pretty permalinks on the 2nd install, I simply get 404 error pages from the root install.

   My original WP .htaccess looked like this:
   

   # BEGIN WordPress
   <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
   RewriteEngine On
   RewriteBase /
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
   RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
   </IfModule>
   
   # END WordPress

   And when I enable pretty permalinks in the 2nd sub directory, it wants me to add this to my .htaccess:
   

   <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
   RewriteEngine On
   RewriteBase /contractor/
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
   RewriteRule . /sub/index.php [L]
   </IfModule>

   I tried just adding this code below the other, but that didn't seem to do anything - and now I've more than exhausted my knowledge of .htaccess files.

   Any suggestions?

   I hate to be a selfish bumper, but I still haven't been able to figure this one out.

   Any suggestions?
