[wp-hackers] Using pretty permalinks when Wordpress is in a different directory

[Christian Gundersson]

Hi Azizur,

Wordpress address is set to domain.com/blog and Site address is set to just
domain.com. There is a index.php in both the root directory and the blog/
directory. Pointing the webbrowser to both domain.com and
domain.com/blogyields the same result.

The site works perfectly for all intents and purposes as long as I don't use
pretty permalinks and the .htaccess file.

Regards
//Christian
