   I have installed WordPress on the subdirectory. (i.e)www.example.com/blog) and now I created a test post (i.e.)www.example.com/blog/test. Is it possible to remove the subdirectory from the url? Looking something like this example.com/test (i.e)www. Rootsitename.com/Postname

     If you want to do that then we do not have a specific recommendation to achieve that and it would likely be best to place the post on your primary domain to achieve that.

     This can be done using the .htaccess file, which is the Linux apache configuration file. It is possible to upload rules to this file, which can be used to rewrite URL addresses in the browser. However, it is a relatively complex topic and it is necessary to approach such an intervention sensitively.

   Hello, this steps are self explanatory but in my case, our main website doesn’t run on WordPress however we want to run WordPress on a sub-directory /blog.
   How do we go about this

   Today I’ve set up my new WordPress inside sub-directory. Didn’t need to change the .htaccess file. I think WP is so smart now that can handle this automatically.

   • WPBeginner Support

     Thanks for sharing, your hosting provider may have also set it up for you when installing as certain hosts set that up for you now.

   Thank you for this guide.

   We are planning to have subdirectories on our next website. This guide really cleared the air.

   One question though,

   Is there a limited to how many subdirectories a WordPress website can have?

   Répondre

   • WPBeginner Support

     There is not a hard limit to the number of directories at the moment.

    Hi.. thanks for this article… am unable to upload the folders wp-admin, wp-content and wp-includes in the sub directory… rest other files are uploaded.. how do I upload all of these???

    Répondre

    • WPBeginner Support

      It would depend on why you are unable, if you reach out to your hosting provider they should be able to assist but it may be a permissions issue with your user.

    Thanks it worked.
    Is it possible to the subdirectory name on the URL, for example example.com/seo/how-to-rank to example.com/how-to-rank

    Répondre

    • WPBeginner Support

      If you would like your URLs not to have the subdirectory in the URL we would recommend installing the site on your primary domain rather than creating redirects to remove it from the URL.

    there is an apparent error in your htaccess code example

    should be
    # BEGIN WordPress

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /your-subdirectory/
    RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

    I want to build a web with a wordpress subdirectory, the first web is domain.com, and the second web is domain.com/blog … as far as I know wordpress uses domain.com/blog as the default post … will it hurt SEO?

    Répondre

    • WPBeginner Support

      WordPress does not use /blog as a default, that is only the most common URL to use. Using blog for a subdirectory should not have a major effect on SEO.

    Hi, I would like to ask is it possible to copy all the file from my current folder to the sub directory? Because I want to have the same template and plugin for my sub directory site.

    Répondre

    • WPBeginner Support

      For a starting point, you could take a look at our guide on how to make a staging site below and instead of installing the site on staging you could have all of your content on the subdomain of your choice and modify the content to be that of your new site. You can find our guide on setting up a staging site below:

    What if the I created a new subdirectory from another subdirectory, should the fix permalink still be relevant and work with no problem?
    For example, I have firstwebsite.com/firstsubdir/ the second subdirectory will be firstwebsite.com/firstsubdir/secsubdir/ should I still use the same fix for the permalink?

    Sorry English is not my first language.

    Répondre

    • WPBeginner Support

      You would need to include the second subdirectory in the permalink change and it should still work.

    Thanks for a clear tutorial.

    Is it possible to install WP in a subdirectory but use the main domain URL to access it and still have the main URL displayed in the browser address bar?
    To clarify:
    I would install WP in mydomain.com/sub/ but would like to access it by opening mydomain.com and have mydomain.com displayed in the browser so that visitors can bookmark my URL.

    Is it possible to set it up?

    Répondre

    • WPBeginner Support

      It is possible but would depend on your hosting provider to see if it is allowed. If you reach out to your hosting provider they should be able to assist.

          Where your site is installed on your host shouldn’t affect your site’s loading time to a noticeable degree

    Hi. I manually copied my Wordpress files to the root folder, without the plugin. I then copied the original database in a new one, where I replaced the siteurl to reflect the new location, the root folder. In the wp-config file at the root folder, I changed WP_HOME and WP_SITEURL to remove the /wordpress.

    As a result, I was able to reach the wp-login for my new location, but no further.

    And when I visited my site, I was getting a warning « too many redirections ».

    Any advice?

      Most SEO plugins should add the required markup for you to be able to be added to Google News. If you are using an SEO plugin you would want to reach out to the plugin’s support for what they recommend for setttings.

    Hi Team, Thanks for this post, not only these… all the other posts in your blog are very helpful to us, I really appreciate your works. Thanks a lot for these.

    And need a little help, actually did the same as in this post, installed wordpress in a sub directory, but I’m face a little issue, i.e. I’m unable to receive the emails from contact form, when it was on sub-domain it’s working fine, but when it is installed on sub-directory not receiving the form submissions, it’s going on loading but not getting submitted. Please help me with this. Thank you.

    Répondre

    • WPBeginner Support

      If they’re not being stored in your site if they should when submitted you would want to reach out to your form plugin’s support. If you are not receiving an email then you would likely want to use SMTP: https://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/how-to-send-email-in-wordpress-using-the-gmail-smtp-server/

    Thanks for the info. I read every post you write.

    Just I’ve a doubt. I created a new WP Install trough my Host provider, but searching, there is no .htaccess file in the subdirectory. It’s mandatory to have a new .htaccess file? it’s going to create errors in the future?

    Répondre

    • WPBeginner Support

      WordPress should generate the htaccess file if you resave your permalinks. If you still don’t see it you may not have the option to show hidden files enabled

    Just got it to work but little bit worried, does it increases my load time of both pages. I mean to say that

    ( currently I have made this on localhost for test but I am going to implement it in one or two days on my main server )

    I have two website but single domain

    Just want to know that does this will increase the bandwidth useage and load time.

    Let’s suppose if I my main webpage size 1 mb and my second website size is also 1 mb so when someone load the main page does it loads all the 1+1 2mb size.

    Répondre

    • WPBeginner Support

      Hi Owaiz,

      Yes it will increase bandwidth usage depending on your traffic. Since both WordPress installs share the resources, traffic load on one website will affect the performance of other website as well.

    I have heard that subdirectories are treated as part of root domain in terms of ranking.But my subdirectory is not ranking, even for exact match keyword search.I have indexed Subdirectory using Fetch as Google Tool.I don’t know what is the problem?

    I have submitted it to Search Console, Created separate robot.txt and sitemap (Sitemap is pending from last two days).

    Should I give more time to Google to Crawl by Subdirectory?

    Please Replay.
    Thanks!

    Question: Login for main and subdirectory

    Hi. I created a subdirectory with a separate WP install.
    It looks like the user has to create an account for the main and subdirectory and to login for both the main and subdirectory.

    Is there a way to let a user who has login to either the main or subdirectory site to have access to the other site without having to login again? i.e if user has login into main site, he/she does not need to login to the subdirectory site. and vice versa.

    Thanks.

    By default, if you are using softaculous, you are installing wordpress to the default directory named wp. You don’t need to install manually WordPress in a directory/ subdomain, you only need to change the name of the directory where you want Softaculous to install WordPress and it will also make a database and so on.

    It would be interesting to show, when you have a little time of course, how to configure cPanel redirects to this subdirectory. For example, I can’t redirect my domain name to a Wordpress subdirectory créé sous /public-html.
