Photopress fails with domain root as main page

I have a problem with Photopress when I use my root as the blog home page instaed of the default directory /wordpress.

I’ve installed wordpress in the directory mydomain.com/wordpress and made root mydomain.com to be my blog home page. I followed the instruction here https://www.ads-software.com/docs/installation/different-address/ and my blog works fine.

I installed Photopress 0.71 and I had to change the lines in photopress-inc.php to make it work.


$pp_photosaddress = $pp_blogurl . '/wordpress/wp-content/' . $pp_photofolder; //add /wordpress
$pp_photospath = $home_path . 'wordpress/wp-content/' . $pp_photofolder; //add wordpress


However, when I open the image browser in admin, and use the button “Add thumbnail”, it creats a post with the thumbnail as the link to the larger picture. When I click the link, errors occur.


Warning: main(./wordpress/wp-blog-header.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /mydomain.com/wordpress/index.php on line 4
Warning: main(./wordpress/wp-blog-header.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /mydomain.com/wordpress/index.php on line 4
Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required './wordpress/wp-blog-header.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/psa/apache/lib/php') in /mydomain.com/wordpress/index.php on line 4

Does anyone have the same problem?

I am thinking if it helps to modify the line here in photopress-inc.php:

$pp_albumaddress = $pp_siteurl . '/' . $pp_albumname;

Can anyone please help?
