Hi Jeff, Is it possible to do this without the virtual directories (I have a feeling the virtual directory management in the web control panel on the shared host I'm using is a bit "funky").
What I had when I tried to install was root (where the site domain points) - farcry - - core - - - webtop - - - etc..... - - plugins - - projects - - - trond (this is where I put the skeleton) However if I could use virtual directories I would not have to go with the standalone setup, and could go like this: root - farcry - - core - - - webtop - - - etc..... - - plugins - - projects - - - trond (where the site domain points - with virtual directories for farcry and webtop) - - - jeff (where another domain points - with virtual directories for farcry and webtop) On Tuesday, April 22, 2014 11:12:16 PM UTC+2, Jeff Coughlin wrote: > > Trond had it right.
