I did run a subfolder installation that way originally, probably because I didn’t know any better, but moved it around Sep 2011. One factor in this was discovering that domain mapping wasn’t possible with it in a subdirectory; WP has to be installed in the server root for that.
You can install it in a subfolder, but you will have that subfolder in the name of the URL.
If you install in domain.com/foo, then ALL sites will start domain.com/foo and so on.
And you can’t map domains.
That is nice to know Ipstenu! That bit of info will come in handy on my next project :-)TY!
I just did the same thing, and if I understand correctly you can’t use subdomains/domains for your subsites. As far as I can see the installation is working like a charm in the subdirectory.
Hi – I just did a subfolder MU change on existing WP site…
deactivated all plugins, but can’t get the MU to work in the Toolbox.
Also changed to Twenty-theme to make sure everything was kind of default…
name of the subfolder before change was wp_eric and I didn’t change that, what went wrong?
Thanks for help,
Eric
