As you have discovered, wpmu doesn't like being used as an addon or via a redirect.</p> <p>You can do it but you'll quickly discover it'll cause more issues down the road. Plus with most hosting setups (ie CPanel) if Apache has any issue like even a 404 that it can't deal with, it'll fall back to the main site. </p> http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic/15597#post-89111 Sun, 22 Nov 2009 06:03:15 +0000 techjockey 89111@http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>I have my primary Wordpress <a href="http://itechengine.com">blog</a> installed in the /public_html folder.

If it;s a shared host, you may have issues.</p> <p>Yes, you can install it in a subdomain, but I gotta ask:</p> <p>"I have a completely different site that is a subdomain that I want the MU installed in"</p> <p>then why not install it there?</p> <p>Whether or not the other sites on your webhost have WP or anything else is a non-issue. MU looks after its own blogs. most of the time.</p> <p>If you DO wind up having issues, pony up the extra $10/month for a seperate hosting account for it. </p> http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic/15369#post-88132 Sun, 08 Nov 2009 23:20:02 +0000 dlc1980 88132@http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/ <p>more notes: my primary domain is not the site that I want the MU in, I have a completely different site that is a subdomain that I want the MU installed in, is this possible or do I have to have MU on the primary domain associated with my hosting?
