I’ve everything installes on this domain:

http://buddypress.stefnitert.com/wpmu

appearently I didn’t check the directory button during the install because a new blog is created in a subdomain.

Can this be changed or do I have to install everything again?

example of conflict:

I guess this means a new install?

Hi.

Did you re-installed wpmu?

or you could change it on admin page?

It is easier to reinstall WPMU. However, it is possible to change it manually. I suggest you search on the wpmu forums as this isn’t a BP question.

The problem with changing from one the other is that it needs to happen manually because of the virtual URL references in the database. You start by turning VHOST from on to off, and then going through your DB and changing the blogs’ paths and domains accordingly.

Any images or anything that might be hard coded into your individual posts will need to be edited also.

It’s not impossible, paisano! (sorry I’m in a Super Mario Bros phase – circa Lou Albano)
