Then step down. The first thing is to determine what you want to get. Where fo you want your wiki, and where do you want WordPress. Assuming you want to access the wiki at http://lauraogrady.ca/wiki/ the line "RewriteRule ^wiki/*$ /cbwiki/index.php [L,QSA]" is right but the line "RewriteRule ^/*$ /cbwiki/index.php [L,QSA]" which redirects accesses to http://lauraogrady.ca/ to the wiki will interfere with you wordpress install. If the wiki redirects you to http://lauraogrady.ca/wiki/ and that's where you want it to lice, don't change LocalSettings.php, even if you're getting a 404. Function of the .htaccess is to make accesses to the chosen short url go to the index.php _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l
