This based off of what I wrote up here: http://www.yiiframework.com/wiki/322/integrating-wordpress-and-yii-still-another-approach-using-yii-as-the-router-controller/

1. Pull down the repo

2. Do a git submodule init / update

3. Set your root directory to the Wordpress folder

4. Do a config / setup of Wordpress

   • make sure specify an active theme (i've had to toggle between 2011 and 2012 to make sure things worked properly)
   • make sure the General Settings for WordPress are setup as follows: WordPress Address (URL): http:///wordpress Site Address (URL): http://

5. Setup a config/mode.php file with DEVELOPMENT in it

6. Make the protected/runtime folder and data/assets folders (if not available)

   • and make sure runtime is server writeable

7. Should now be able to load your Yii/Wordpress app at your root directory folder
