Search Function Not Working in a WP install in a Subdirectory

I have a fresh install of WP with the core GeoDirectory plugin installed, the URL to this install is http://www.mysite.com/alias-to-subfolder/

I load up the dummy info using the GeoDirectory backend and then try to search these dummie listings on the front end. What happens is that when I click search I get redirected to a URL that looks like this:

www.mysite.com/alias-to-subfolder?geodir_search=1&stype=gd_place&........... ( this is not the full URL, just giving an example)

If you notice the “/” between “/alias-to-subfolder” and the starting “?” is missing. If I manually add the “/” (“/alias-to-subfolder/?”) to the URL the search works fine.

If I load geodirectory into my root install of WP (www.mysite.com) it works fine. It seems that the search function assumes that GeoDirectory will be running in a root folder and not a sub-diretory/alias. is there an easy fix for this or do I need to go in and change code to fix this?
