Ah, yes, I should have clarified. I know that going to mysite.com/? will go to the blog, but on a clean zc 1.3.7.1 install with wp embedded the default behavior when you go to mysite.com is to go to mysite.com and the regular zen main page is displayed. For some reason, when I go to my super modified site(a clone testing site of course!) and go to mysite.com/test_site it will go to mysite.com/test_site/?. That is what I can't figure out. I have tried to redirect with an htaccess file but everything that I have tried so far doesn't work or will break the functionality of the zen cart wordpress sidebox and when you click a wp link it just redirects back to the index page.
It's been frustrating the heck out of me. I just had a thought that perhaps the test site being in a subdirectory and not the root might have something to do with it somehow. I will try installing a test clone into one of my dormant domain's root to see if that is the problem.
There is some weird conflict going on and I can't quite get it right. I have tried changing some of the logic in includes/extra_configures/wordpress-config.php but still haven't gotten it with or without Kiddo's fix.
If anyone else has had a similar problem and a fix I am all ears!I will keep working on isolating the problem, and once figured out I will post my results.
