 * Hi,
 * I stuck in the loop enough: chitchat -> configuration – > enough chitchat -> 
   configuration
 * My site is in a folder /site/
 * So 2 questions:
    -Should I modify the Path to WordPress root directory to /site/
   or just the root? -Then what’s next? Should I rename the php.ivi to php5.ini?
 * Any help is appreciated! 🙂

 * If you followed [this article](http://codex.wordpress.org/Giving_WordPress_Its_Own_Directory),
   then you need to change the path during the installation process. This is a very
   specific installation.
    Otherwise, you don’t need to change anything.
 * > Then what’s next? Should I rename the php.ivi to php5.ini?
 * According to Goddady “[What filename does my PHP initialization file (php.ini) need to use](http://support.godaddy.com/help/article/8913/what-filename-does-my-php-initialization-file-phpini-need-to-use)”**
   php5.ini** is what you should use on shared hosting accounts, and **.user.ini**
   if you have your own dedicated/VPs server.
    You may also need to [wait a couple of minutes](http://support.godaddy.com/help/article/5647/why-isnt-my-php-initialization-file-taking-effect)
   after the change.
 * Rename your php.ini accordingly, then edit the .htaccess file so that the line
   added by the installer (`SetEnv PHPRC xxxxx`) points to that new INI file.

 * path directory : /html/site/
    and php5.ini
 * Now I need to wait a few minutes now (cross fingers) 🙂

 * Well, it did not worked.
    Should I install it to /html/ ?

 * How do you access your WordPress site?
    1) [http://domain.tld/](http://domain.tld/)
   Or: 2) [http://domain.tld/site/](http://domain.tld/site/)
 * If it is 1), then you must change the path during the installation.
    If it is
   2), do not change it.
 * You can download [this script](http://nintechnet.com/ninjacheck_php.txt), rename
   the file to **ninjacheck.php**, upload it in your WP root folder, call it from
   your browser and paste here the output.

 * Yes, you need to change it.
    I recommend to delete all NinjaFirewall directives
   added to your php5.ini and .htaccess files and re-run the installer. During the
   installation, change the WP path, and select php5.ini.
