Change home URL to domain URL?

Assuming the WordPress is installed in the blog folder then to make WordPress available at https://mydomain.com just change in Settings->General, the Blog address (URL) to https://mydomain.com and put this index.php file in your web-root folder (it is the same folder that contains the blog folder)

<?php
/* Short and sweet */
define('WP_USE_THEMES', true);
require('./blog/wp-blog-header.php');
?>

Then update your permalinks in Settings->Permalinks.

No i do not want to ‘move’ my wordpress. I have a static homepage. mydomain.com that is my static homepage. however when i click on ‘home’ (in my blog) it does not take me to my static homepage it takes me to my blog… I want to change my blog so when i click on ‘home’ it takes me to my static homepage while keeping my blog at /blog.

How can i do this.

You need to create a page in your blog, then go into Settings/Reading and set that page to be a static page.

ok…. However, that will not make my ‘home’ in my blog go to my home page that is already made and already created. I am guessing that i have to go into the actual file and change the URL.. Is this correct and what is the process in doing so?

Your links are probably in your header.php file in your theme…open it and change the link so your home button goes where you want it. note, I’m doing a lot of guessing here since I don’t have a link to your site.
