    I have plogger installed on a subdomain of my main site. Therefore, things like the RSS Feed, The slideshow link, etc etc are calling the base URL which right now is read as my main domain.

    Is there anyway it can be changed to take into account for the subdomain

    eg of subdomain would be "user.mysite.com

    Thanks!

    You should define the base URL in the installation, if memory serves (sometimes it doesn't). If you define it there, I don't see why it wouldn't properly generate the links.

    Nope....installation form does not ask for base URL/path.

    Only database details and login info....

    Line 16 of plog-load_config.php
    $config["baseurl"] = "http://".$_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"]. substr($_SERVER["PHP_SELF"],0,strrpos($_SERVER["PHP_SELF"],"/")) . "/";

    Try manually putting in your subdomain
    $config["baseurl"] = "http://sub.domain.com". substr($_SERVER["PHP_SELF"],0,strrpos($_SERVER["PHP_SELF"],"/")) . "/";

    Post the relevant lines you changed; sounds like there's something syntactically wrong in the code.

    Why not use "HTTP_HOST" instead of "SERVER_NAME" ?
    I just changed it and works for me, I'm pointing some subdomains and several domain names to the same server, making them look like different web pages.

    Wasn't aware of that variable, if that works it would definitely be a better solution.
