I'm trying to install WordPress MU on a web site with existing content in the root folder. So WPMU cannot be installed in the root folder, but rather in the subfolder 'blogs/'. The URL for WPMU would be something like:
However, I want to use subdomains for hosted blogs. Unfortunately this means that the URL WPMU comes up with for each of them would be something like:
http://coolblog.example.com/blogs/
I really want to drop that trailing 'blogs/' path, so I'd get something like:
I can handle parking the coolblog.example.com subdomain in the WPMU installation folder. I just need WPMU to be aware that there's no '/blogs' path at the end of the URL.
(Alternately, I could move the WPMU installation into its own subdomain, blogs.example.com, but I'd still want its hosted blogs to have their own second-level domain, *not* coolblog.blogs.example.com.)
Is there any way to do this?
Thanks!
