Installation Is Perfect, However My URL Structure Is Screwed!

Hello All!

I’ve installed BuddyPress after I changed my installation directory for WordPress. It currently resides as http://ddjradio.net/cbeyondfusion but when users visit the site it will appear as http://ddjradio.net. I have done this by changing the index.php file in the WordPress root directory and moved it to the root of my site (‘/** Loads the WordPress Environment and Template */
require(‘./cbeyondfusion/wp-blog-header.php’); ‘) along with the .htaccess file.

Buddypress seems to have used the original directory that I have hidden. So all of the links within BuddyPress appear as http://ddjradio.net/cbeyondfusion/members instead of http://ddjradio.net/members. Is there a simple solution for htis?

I don’t believe Giving WordPress its own directory works with BuddyPress showing up in the root when your WP is actually in the directory. Much like WP Multisite won’t work when you give WP its own directory. Calling on devs @DJPaul @boonebgorges @johnjamesjacoby. Is this a warning we should also add in Codex?

@ninamorena Wow, I’m not sure. That’s not a good thing to change. I assume you have a good reason for not installing WordPress at http://example.net/?

@mercime I think so, I’ve not come across this before.
