Problem installing joomla 1.0 into sub-directories

Post by Frustrato » Fri May 21, 2010 4:22 pm

I have a site that now has subdirectories - http://www.gourmetcuisine.com/Vancouver - and I have installed joomla into the folder - and it looks fine, except the menu sends me to links that appear broken - they are missing the 'index.php' in the middle.

http://www.gourmetcuisine.com/Vancouver ... /view/3/4/ is broken, but:
http://www.gourmetcuisine.com/Vancouver ... /view/3/4/ works!

How do I get the menu to insert the 'index.php' bit?
I did add the 'index.php' to the config file live site URL - which made the menu *work* but made the template stop working!

Why are you installing Joomla 1.0?

Joomla 1.5.17 is the minimum you should be at
We cannot become what we need to be ... by remaining what we are

The site exists in 1.0 - I need to duplicate it and make changes, building a whole new 1.5 site would be time consuming... not sure if I could re-make the same site in 1.5 and have it look and behave the same.

no matter which version of joomla - the issue of making sub-sites in folders and having the folder name then the index.php bit show up is my problem.

I added /index.php to the live site name... and now the menus point where they should, but the site looks messed up. If I remove that index.php bit the site looks fine but the menus point to the wrong URL (it is missing the index.php bit!).
