+Ugly www directory in URLs
+--------------------------
+In case point 5 of the installation instructions cannot be put into
+practice by you because you are not able to change the web server
+configuration, you are not lost! There is a way to get rid of
+www/ in your URL!
+
+Imagine following directory layout:
+ /home/customer123/
+   www/
+     subdomain1/
+     subdomain2/
+     subdomain3/
+
+Create a SemanticScuttle directory somewhere outside www if possible
+and put all directories except www/ in there. Move all files and
+directories from www/ into your subdomain directory. Then modify
+subdomain/www-header.php to include the correct file path.
+
+The new directory layout should look that way:
+ /home/customer123/
+   semanticscuttle/
+     doc/
+     data/
+     src/
+   www/
+     subdomain1/
+     subdomain2/ (this is the semanticscuttle subdomain)
+       about.php
+       admin.php
+       ..
+       www-header.php
+     subdomain3/
+
+Now open www-header.php and replace
+  require_once '../src/SemanticScuttle/header.php';
+with
+  require_once '../../semanticscuttle/src/SemanticScuttle/header.php';
