Thanks for the replies. As Jeremy says, we are changing this for SEO purposes.
The blog is currently working fine on blog.mysite.com, and I am trying to move it to be available on www.mysite.com/blog I appreciate all the information above, I will need to go through it to understand it fully. I've done further testing on what I have at the moment, if I remove the following for the permalinks settings in the wordpress DB /%year%/%monthnum%/%postname%/ Then the URLs end up being like the following blog/?p=34 Which then displays fine, but obviously I need a way to get this working with the nice looking URLs.. I'm going to start by looking into the htaccess changes, I think maybe the suggestions above will help with this. I also wonder if a change may be needed to the htaccess under the blog/ directory. It currently looks lilke this <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] </IfModule> On Jun 21, 7:29 am, Jeremy Burns | Class Outfit <jeremybu...@classoutfit.com> wrote: > www.mysite.com/blogis better for SEO purposes. > > On 21 Jun 2011, at 07:12, Zaky Katalan-Ezra wrote: > > > > > > > > > Editing the .htaccess is a good method if the files you want to directly > > access is some how part of your cake solution. > > A calculator you downloaded from somewhere and you want to add to your app > > without the need to integrate it to you cake code, for example. > > > But the problem here have no connection to cake. > > Its an apache issue. > > You set the site domain and you want to allow mod rewrite on the apache > > root folder and exclude it from one of the directories under the apache > > root. > > > Why make it a cake issue if its not? > > > You can also use blog.mysite.com which is more elegant I think. > > Seehttp://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/vhosts/examples.html > > > -- > > Our newest site for the community: CakePHP Video > > Tutorialshttp://tv.cakephp.org > > Check out the new CakePHP Questions sitehttp://ask.cakephp.organd help > > others with their CakePHP related questions. > > > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > > cake-php+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group > > athttp://groups.google.com/group/cake-php -- Our newest site for the community: CakePHP Video Tutorials http://tv.cakephp.org Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://ask.cakephp.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.
