Thanks podz.
I have the index.php editing finished but I don’t understand what I’m supposed to change in the wp-config-sample.php file.
Fill in what database details? Thanks again.

I’m confused… you said it had been set up ?
If you used cpanel, try here:

Sorry for any confusion podz.
My blog works fine as long as you go to the site:
https://www.mydomain.com/wordpress
I want the blog to be at:
https://www.mydomain.com
I use DirectAdmin BTW.

Ah.. in that case just leave wp-config.php alone.
I’ve never done it, but I believe those instructions above (top url) will give the effect you wish ? Is it not working ?
The options that need changing are in Options, or alternatively, once you have all the files in the correct locations, you can alter the ‘site_url’ and ‘home’ values in the ‘wp_options’ table.

I tried changing the address in Options to https://www.mydomain.com like I wanted but that’s what gave me the error in the first place.
How do I alter the ‘site_url’ and ‘home’ values in the ‘wp_options’ table? Thanks.

That has screenshots to change a password, but the principle icons remain pretty much the same. You just want the wp_options table though.
(I think a guide for this one is needed … this query happens a lot ?? )

I really appreciate all of your help podz. I sure am learning a lot this morning. ??
OK, I’ve changed the site_url value. But I can’t find the ‘home’ value.

Same table, just keep going .. mine is around #102

LOL…Silly me didn’t even realize there were multiple pages.
The ‘home’ value was correct already as https://www.mydomain.com
So, after changing the ‘site_url’ and verifying the ‘home’ values I checked https://www.mydomain.com and nothing there. I checked https://www.mydomain.com/wordpress and the blog was there without formatting and colors.
I changed the ‘site_url’ back to https://www.mydomain.com/wordpress and my blog is correct now.
But none of this has fixed making my blog be at https://www.mydomain.com instead of https://www.mydomain.com/wordpress.
Any other suggestions?

Have you moved index.php into the root folder ?

No. I haven’t moved anything.

You need to….. I think all you need to move is index.php into root, and it will manage the rest on it’s own.
The top link has the file details though.

So I can keep the ‘site_url’ as https://www.mydomain.com/wordpress?
And by moving the index.php file into root. Are you talking about moving it to the same directory where the index.html file is at?

Yes, from what I understand about this – like I said I’ve never actually done it.
I think you need index.php where you want people to go to see your blog, and all the other files in the wp directory.
