no connection to templates?

[fernando]

in the 12/30 version, i am installed in a sub folder beside the root install of WP1.5a6 2004-12-28

i am not getting any css, or templating.

mod rewrite set to "false" domain: 'my-domain.com" path: "/sub-dir/"

rboren described an issue with sub directories of 1.3 where a fix needed to be applied to the head of any other index.php located within a sub dir of the install root:

<?php $wp_did_template_redirect = true; ?>

is this still the case? would this be useful information to others?

to resolve my own issue:

it's been pointed out that bbPress does not presently arrive with any "styling" thus, what looks like "no connection to templates" is inaccurate.

i am styling a version now in a plain wrapping for a potentially more pleasant interrum experience.

i will follow up on the dev mailing list when it's done and written up.

resolved.
