 * All,
 * If you take the following robots.txt file – [http://codex.wordpress.org/Search_Engine_Optimization_for_WordPress#Robots.txt_Optimization](http://codex.wordpress.org/Search_Engine_Optimization_for_WordPress#Robots.txt_Optimization)
 * Does this assume that your wordpress is installed in your domain root and not
   in a folder i.e. wordpress.
 * Therefore if I installed a blog do I need to add Disallow: wordpress/cgi-bin 
   or I suppose I could just go */Disallow: /cgi-bin
 * Thanks

 * You are correct. just add the wordpress/wp-content to the robots.txt file.
