 * All my wordpress sites use the permalink parameter post-name I think, which means
   if the site name is “abc” then it will b:
    _mysite.com/abc_ However for a program
   I need to create a subfolder which shall look like this: _mysite.com/abc/def/
   file.rar_ or _mysite.com/abc/file.rar_
 * The problem is following: as soon I create a subfolder “abc” WordPress cannot
   display the WP page _mysite.com/abc_ (404 – Error not found)
 * Does anyone have any idea of how I can create this subfolder abc in a way that
   it will also display the WP page _mysite.com/abc_ ?
 * I found 1 article about it, but not sure if it´s explained here as they used 
   another subfolder name, I really need the same subfolder name:
