Cannot use Wordpress from Subfolder (ex: contoso.com/blog) about wordpress-linux-appservice

[askpatrickw]

Just a heads up, I have opened a support case with MS via our CSP (My company is an indirect CSP) for this issue.

@askpatrickw - can you please describe the actual use case you wanted to achieve to keep WordPress from Subfolder?

[askpatrickw]

Pretty common use case, at the root domain (mydomain.com) a business has an e-commerce site (or anything really) and they also want to have a Wordpress blog at mydomain.com/blog.

We are enabling Multisite support with subdirectories and hopefully that can help achieve your usecase. This change is still in Test phase, so you may try creating the WordPress site from here http://aka.ms/canary and share any feedback you may have.

We have released the WordPress multisite support with subdirectories option that will help resolve this issue; details can be found here.

This is more a workaround than what was initially asked for but I'm sure it will be useful to some customers so its still good that it was done. ;-)

I'll let you all decide to close this or not as-is.
