Installation in sub folder – navigation issues

peter

which buttons? are navigating to the blog. do you have a link to the site in question.

if im understanding your problem correctly; heres two ways you could do it.

1. create the new blog by making it a sub-domain like this: subfolder.yourdomain.com do this in hostgators add-on domain option,then load wordpress on it using fantastico.

or

2. create folder as you mentioned. you can do it hostgator but i usually just create a folder using my ftp client under the domain name you want to use.ie.. mydomain.com/blog then load wordpress in /blog folder.

once the new blog folder is setup you can use duplicator plugin to easily transfer/clone/copy everything to it.

Thanks for the quick answer. The domain is https://lcrecordings.com/ (3.3.2) and I’ve installed another WP instance (3.4) in https://lcrecordings.com/enoch/

Click on any button and it will open the page up in the parent frame. I’ve got a similar local set up using MAMP on Mac, and this works fine so was hopeful it would be the same ??

hostgator sounds very useful will give that a try, but would first like to make sure root is correctly defined. Wondering if I need to define the Path somewhere in wp-config.php or is there a string in the DB I need to tweak?

many thanks,
peter
