I have the domain thesquaredcircle.com set up, and a wiki set up at thesquaredcircle.com/wiki . I then set up thewrestlepedia.com as an Addon domain and want it to go to thesquaredcircle.com/wiki (but still keep thewrestlepedia.com as the URL, so if someone goes to thewrestlepedia.com/wiki/page.php, it will find wiki/page.php on thesquaredcircle.com but not display thesquaredcircle.com), so when I set up the Addon domain I put wiki as the subdomain/username. However, when you go to thewrestlepedia.com, the URL changes to thewrestlepedia.com/wiki/index.php (so its "working") but its returning a 404 error. Im so confused because its just not working.

This would depend on what host company you are using as well as how the redirect is set up. Some hosts treat addon domains as parked domains...what control panel is your hosting company using?? It appears as though it is set up as a redirect instead of an add on...I may be able to help if you let me know hosting company and control panel type.

Have you tried contacting your hosting provider for help? It would take some sort of redirect rule i'm assuming to make this work in your htaccess file. There isn't anything in the control panel you can do to set this since you're redirecting to a folder on another domain.
