If you could explain a little more about what you’ve already tried, it makes it easier for people help track down your problem. Assuming you followed this tutorial , the first change is to make sure that you create a seperate database and datbase user for both sites. Make sure you also use the right ones in each site’s wp-config.php file. Assuming that the root blog is installed in /var/www/html and the sub-blog is installed to /var/www/html/subdirectory, edit your /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/wordpress file to look like: server { listen 80 default_server; listen [::]:80 default_server ipv6only=on; root /var/www/html; index index.php index.html index.htm; server_name your_domain.com; location / { try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?q=$uri&$args; } location /<^>subdirectory<^> { try_files $uri $uri/ /<^>subdirectory<^>/index.php?q=$uri&$args; } error_page 404 /404.html; error_page 500 502 503 504 /50x.html; location = /50x.html { root /usr/share/nginx/html; } location ~ \.php$ { try_files $uri =404; fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$; fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock; fastcgi_index index.php; include fastcgi_params; } } You should be all set to go.
