# Add subfolder for test WordPress environment?

 * I have tried searching but have not found the right information.
 * I currently have a WordPress site at “mydomain.com”. I am building a custom theme
   for Client A.
 * I would like to install another instance of WordPress at “mydomain.com/test/ClientA”
   so that Client A can view his new theme live.
 * Is this possible? Are there any conflicts I need to beware of? I am wary of installing
   two instances of WordPress until I read the right advice, as I do not want to
   harm my current site at “mydomain.com”.
 * Thank you!

 * It is possible…
 * I do similar using subdomains or subfolders for various testing

 * Rev. Voodoo, is there anything I should know?
 * I would like to first create the /test folder, and then use Fantastico to install
   the WordPress in that subfolder for ClientA.
 * Anyone else?

 * I’ve never run into any issues or had any conflicts – either using subfolders
   or subdomains. I have both going right now.
 * I’ve never had to do anything special… just install and go!
