    Using Umbraco Blog as a subsite of existing site, using host-header feature - xslt errors

    Hi All,

    I'm trying to use the umbraco blog as part of a site I have already created. My page is matthewhetton.com (its my resume), and I wanted my blog to appear at matthewhettong.com/blog or something like that.

    My initial attempt, after installing the blog, has been to give the bog website a relevant host header. This works to a point, but all the xslt files then throw parsing errors. The errors are because the $currentPage is actually referencing the matthewwhetton.com website rather than the blog website.

    Is there any way I can work around this, or is the simplest solution just going to be building my resume site into the blog site?

    Thanks for your help

    Matt

    It's probably safer to use a sub-domain, using http://blog.matthewhettong.com should allow you to run two sites on completely different platforms.
