    I really like the feature that it is possible to use subdomains, so when a user signs up for a blog he or she gets an url like http://username.domain.com

    But..what if I install wpmu in a subdir or in a subdomain (domain.com/wpmu or wpmu.domain.com) will it still be possible to use http://username.domain.com or would it look like this: http://username.domain.com/wpmu or http://username.wpmu.domain.com? I know I just could use the main dir of my domain, but I already have joomla installed there. If it is possible to use http://username.domain.com what should I do to make it possible?

    Cheers

    If you install it to domain.com/wpmu, you'll only be able to do domain.com/wpmu/usernames.

    If you install it to wpmu.domain.com, you can do either username.wpmu.domain.com (but a good amount of the internet can't see the forth name so won't be able to see the sites) or wpmu.domain.com/username.

    Hmm.. This might work! I'll give it a try!
