Does Umbraco allow non-umbraco subdomains

Hi I am installing Umbraco to the root directory of my website. And also I want to install my wordpress blog to a subfolder in the root directory.

However any request to the subfolder is being intercepted by Umbraco and it is showing that document URL cannot be found. Is there a way to make Umbraco ignore certain subdomains?

This can be set up with in IIS by setting up the blog as a separate application with in the umbraco site.

However if you are trying to make a sub-domain there is no reason why this should be in the same site, I would say it is best to create a separate site with in IIS or purchase another hosting account to host the blog separately

You can also use umbracoReservedUrls to tell umbraco to ignore specific pages:

<add key="umbracoReservedUrls" value="/mypages/regular-page.aspx" />

it's useful for binding too:

<add key="umbracoReservedPaths" value="~/umbraco,~/install/,~/http-bind/" />

~/http-bind/

You can tell Umbraco to ignore certain paths or folders in the web.config.

You need to update the following entry in the appSetting section of the web.config:

umbracoReservedPaths

Add the subfolder you wish Umbraco to ignore in there.

i.e.

<add key="umbracoReservedPaths" value="/umbraco,/install/,/wordpress/" />

There are more details on the Umbraco web.config settings in on our.umbraco.org
