 * Hello guys,
    i’m installing a new plugin to integrate IPBOard with WordPress..
   but I have some problem understanding paths that I have to insert in some fields.
 * My WordPress is installed on [http://www.mysite.com](http://www.mysite.com) instead
   my forum in [http://www.mysite.com/forum](http://www.mysite.com/forum)
 * I don’t understand difference between Path to WP and Blog Domain, and then, how
   can I find blog cookie domain? Is just the http to cookie folder?
 * **
    Path to WordPress
   : Insert the serverside path to WordPress
    Blog-Domain:
   Insert the Domain of your WordPress Blog Blog Cookie Domain: Insert the Cookie-
   Domain for the blog. When the blog is on a subdomain, use the secondlevel domain,
   e.g. blog is on sub.domain.com, insert .domain.co

 * **Path to WordPress:** The absolute filesystem path to the root of the WordPress
   installation. Simplest way of finding out would be uploading a PHP script to 
   the root directory of your WordPress installation, such as:
    <?php echo __FILE__;?
   > Save the text above as file as path2wp.php and upload it to the root directory
   where WordPress is installed. Then on your browser type in the URL bar: [http://www.mysite.com/path2wp.php](http://www.mysite.com/path2wp.php)(
   change if WordPress is installed in a subdirectory).
 * **Blog-Domain:** mysite.com
 * **Blog Cookie Domain:** mysite.com

 * It gave me:
 * /web/htdocs/www.mysite.com/home/path2wp.php
 * Good 🙂
 * so blog domain and blog cookie doesn’t need /web/ht…?
