    Sub-domian help

    hello,

    I was wondering if I made a sub-domain in my site and used other seo scripts in it (I'm going to make it a wordpress blog) would it harm my main vb forum? and would submitting 2 sitemaps effect something?

    thank you.

    You can run 2 separate sites on subdomains and submit sitemaps for each with no issue.

    If you have any issues in your wordpress site, simply start your htaccess file with RewriteEngine Off before turning it back on for the wordpress rewrite rules.

    You may need to make an exclusion in your non-www to www rules in your htaccess.

    instead of
    Code:
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.domain\.com
    you would use something like:
    Code:
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !(^www\.domain\.com$|^reviews\.domain\.com$)
    so the subdomain doesn't get subject to being pushed to www
