[Solved] Problem with vanilla sign in

I am having an issue signing into vanilla after a fresh install. It only happens when vanilla is installed on a domain that is running Wordpress. My main website is a Wordpress blog and I want vanilla set up at /demo/vanilla. The install works, but when I hit sign in, the pop up is my Wordpress blogs 404 error page. If I try and go anywhere besides the index, it goes to the Wordpress error page. See for yourself: http://www.forummechanics.com/demo/vanilla/

you need to fix your htaccess file. Likely wordpress has one too. this happens when you have these under the root and not a subdirectory. They also both have index pages , so you have a conflict there which you can resolve. Please post the contents of the htaccess file of both wp and vanilla use < pre > code here< /pre > so it looks right. Also give the numerical version of Vanilla you are using.

Thanks for the quick response. You were right, the .htaccess needed to be modified. I figured it out once I read the notes in the file. Just needed to specify the path to the forum.
# Modified # If you modify this file then change the above line to: # Modified RewriteEngine On # Certain hosts may require the following line. # If vanilla is in a subfolder then you need to specify it after the /. # (ex. You put Vanilla in /forum so change the next line to: RewriteBase /forum) RewriteBase /demo/vanilla RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php\?p=$1 [QSA,L]
