Re: Subdirectory versus subdomain in1.2

I’ve always used the subdomain structure myself.

However, I can see the logic of recommended subdirectory structure for BP – you could install BuddyPress in the main blog OR in a subblog (e.g. blog_id_2) instead of the main site.

e.g. if BP installed in sub-blog, http://mysite.com/members/ . When your members create a blog, the URL would look like this – http://mysite.com/members/username/

On the other hand, using subdomain structure, right now you have to install in main site (blog_id_1) http://mysite.com/ so that when your members create a blog, the URL would look like this – http://username.mysite.com

Otherwise, if you install in a sub-blog at blog_id_2 or blog_id_3 etc e.g. http://members.mysite.com , when users create a blog, URL would look like this http://username.members.mysite.com – arggh.
