 * For securiy purposes i have installed wordpress within a subcatgory and moved
   the wp-config file to an upper category.
 * Now my website url is e.g. myurl
    and my wordpress adress e.g. myurl/subcategory
 * So in Frontend everything goes by my url e.g.
    [http://blog.url.at/index.php](http://blog.url.at/index.php)
 * But in Backend e.g.
    [http://blog.url.at/subc/wp-admin/](http://blog.url.at/subc/wp-admin/)
 * If i want to download a file with the plugin then it wont work because the subcategory
   will be included.
    Wrong: [http://blog.url.at/subc/?wpdmdl=20&_wpdmkey=55e33413124e2](http://blog.url.at/subc/?wpdmdl=20&_wpdmkey=55e33413124e2)
 * If i remove the subcategory from the link name than it works.
    How to configure
   that correct so the subc will not be used?? Right: [http://blog.url.at/?wpdmdl=20&_wpdmkey=55e33413124e2](http://blog.url.at/?wpdmdl=20&_wpdmkey=55e33413124e2)
 * Thx!
