Howto use Mint for tracking and stats?

I installed Serendipity in the root directory of my domain and not in a subdirectory like eg. 'blog', 's9y', or 'serendipity'.

Now i want to use Mint for tracking and stats. I placed the 'mint' directory also in my root folder and it should be accessible via http://mydomain.com/mint - but that doesn't work; i get redirected to my Serendipity blog.

Any idea, what i'm doing wrong? It worked flawlessly this way in WordPress...

Hi!

Put a .htaccess in your mint directory and insert "RewriteEngine Off".

See FAQ: http://www.s9y.org/11.html#A13

Ok... do i have to put the htaccess in all sub-(and subsub-)directories of Mint as well?

Hi!

No, only the core directory. All subdirectories inherit that setting (which is why in first instance the s9y rules apply to the mint directory).

Hey glad to see you're trying out Mint! I use it as well, and it's pretty dern nifty.

You can add the Mint script in the Head nugget plugin to track your stats.

@azel: please take a look at this post.

@gavin: thanks for your help, just one more question: What else has to be in the .htaccess to automatically open .../mint/index.php when opening .../mint/ in my browser? Currently i have to explicitly open .../mint/index.php

Hi!

Try

Code: Select all

DirectoryIndex index.php
or

Code: Select all

DirectoryIndex /mint/index.php
