How would one go about installing WordPress in the subdirectory of another ASP.NET CMS, nopCommerce, on a Microsoft-IIS/7.5 server? Are there any particular security implications to consider? The server is running ASP.NET v4.0.30319.

I think you are playing with fire. Backups, bindings, upgrades. Do you want to create sub-sites for the main Nop? A reason would help understand the context. – Anthony Horne Jun 17 '17 at 07:12

The blog feature in nopCommerce is very basic. It's generally considered better in terms of SEO to install a website blog in a sub folder rather than a sub directory. I want to know is it possible to install WordPress in a sub folder of nopCommerce? Or is it too much of a headache? – Darren Jun 18 '17 at 09:54

To my knowledge, wordpress uses PHP, so you will be running the main site as ASP.net and then have to create sub-applications (or set the subfolder as an app also), but with PHP as the engine. Tricky, but I don't see why it wouldn't work. I would not suggest that as a typical setup. Also, the backup mechanism - WebDeploy, may have a problem with that config. A worthwhile test, if you have time. – Anthony Horne Jun 18 '17 at 14:15
