can I have wordpress blog and website installed on the root domain folder?

Hi,

I've stuck to a problem.

On root folder, I'm having pmwiki index.html page running also the .htaccess and now I want to have my wordpress blog on the same folder. As you know wordpress will have index.php .

I want to have the both pmwiki and wordpress blog with the following urls

1) For pmwiki index.html (home page)

"http://www.mydomain.com/" (content will come from pmwiki)

2) For Wordpress blog (blog post)

"http://www.mydomain.com/this-is-a-sample-post/" (content will come from blog)

Please suggest how to do it?

 

Use htaccess to simply re-route all requests to / to go to the html page

 

yes, will work for both. thought, the search engines are reading index.html file first

i am using same and works just fine
need to change permalinks to remove all the post dates
categories will still be like domain.com/category/category-name
posts will be domain.com/long-post-name
