Hi, I'm trying to add a wordpress installation to my site. I have vbulletin installed in my root and I am using the seo formatted links.

I am installing my wordpress site in a subdirectory called wp/ so as not to disturb the existing vbulletin installation. I'm not sure how I should setup my .htaccess file to accommodate this. I tried combining the wordpress .htaccess and the vbulletin one and they are conflicting. Obviously I'm a novice with this url rewrite stuff . Any help would be appreciated.

Here is my .htaccess:

# BEGIN WordPress
 <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
 RewriteEngine On
 RewriteBase /mysite
 RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
 RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
 RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
 RewriteRule . /mysite/wp/index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

## Charset
AddDefaultCharset Off 

## ETags
FileETag None

## Expires
<ifModule mod_expires.c>
	ExpiresActive On
	ExpiresDefault "access plus 1 seconds"
	ExpiresByType text/html "access plus 1 seconds"
	ExpiresByType image/gif "access plus 259200000 seconds"
	ExpiresByType image/jpeg "access plus 259200000 seconds"
	ExpiresByType image/png "access plus 259200000 seconds"
	ExpiresByType text/css "access plus 60480000 seconds"
	ExpiresByType text/javascript "access plus 21600000 seconds"
	ExpiresByType application/x-javascript "access plus 21600000 seconds"
</ifModule>

DirectoryIndex /content
