Fatal error.

I have my wordpress installation in it’s own directory, so i checked how to make it so it looks like it’s installed in the root, i did this:
https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Giving_WordPress_Its_Own_Directory

I edited the root php file and copied the php file from my theme folder, i also changed the my URL from the general settings tab. I’m not using pretty permalinks so i don’t have a .htaccess file, i checked on filezilla show hidden files i don’t have the .htaccess file.

Now when i try to go to my site i get this error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_header() in /home/-./shinyskull.com/index.php on line 2

my site is: shinyskull.com

Thanks, any help is appreciated.
