I have made a website (WP based) and put every stuff inside the /site folder.

I did that, thinking of creating “custom” systems, and putting each one inside a folder, so for example: /promo would go to something else than the website…

But, I have tried with both .htaccess redirect and PHP location redirect, and when I try to “share” the website, without it’s /site folder included, Facebook doesen’t detect’s the site meta…

Also, is it a problem for google, to use redirect’s when accessing the website without the /site WP home folder? I mean, a guy comming from a http://www.onesite.com would have it’s “referer” header as onesite, or mysite?

Thanks

    I feel like you’re creating your own problems. Just put WordPress in document root and don’t bother with rewriting to a subdirectory. WordPress won’t delete any custom files or folders when updating.

    If you have some custom part that you want to reach through http://www.example.com/promo. Put it in the promo folder under the document root.

    If want to reach the custom part through http://promo.example.com, just create new virtual host.
