Installing cmsb along sige wordpress Can't Post
I don't know enough about wordpress to answer this...

I am redesigning a site currently using wordpress, When finished I will dump wordpress, but I want to keep the old wordpress site going while i develop the cmsb on the same server.

Have uploaded cmsb but can't see /cmsAdmin/admin.php with browser...404 Not Found.

Admin.php is there, I can access it via the control panel.

Can I run these content managers in parallel for a while?

Hi markr,

It sounds like the Wordpress installation is set to redirect URL requests to the directory in which wordpress resides (more often than not, 'wordpress').

As a result, any request to "domain.com/cmsAdmin/" will actually be directed to "domain.com/wordpress/cmsAdmin/" which doesn't exist.

To fix this, you will have to edit the .htaccess file that wordpress has generated to allow requests to "domain.com/cmsAdmin/" to pass though uninterrupted.

This should allow you to run cmsAdmin in parallel with no conflicts (just remember that any requests to "domain.com/filename.ext" will still go to "domain.php/wordpress/filename.ext" - every file you want to access will need an exception so best to add an exception that will cover all the files you create - naming each file using a prefix, eg "cmsb-filename.ext", will make this easier).

Let me know if this helps,

Tom
