    i added wordpress to my site, but to access the information in it i have to go to MYSITE.info/wordpress. What do i have to do so i can see my wordpress at MYSITE.info directly?

    i added wordpress to my site

    From your previous post, you mentioned "you copied folder to the server so that means MYSITE.info/wordpress/

    To access WP at root, move all the contents of the wordpress directory (but not the directory itself) into the root directory of your web site. Delete the old .htaccess and drop the tables in database generated in the original install for the new WP installation at root.

    .htaccess file is "hidden" sometimes in your FTP program

    Just delete the /wordpress/ folder using cpanel File Manager and FTP upload the WP folder's files/folders to the root (make sure you've got the correct DB connection in your wp-config.php file.

    log in to your host's control panel and find the phpmyadmin icon
    click it
    select database
    put a check by all tables
    choose "drop" from drop down menu at bottom of page
