   Hi ...
   I installed a new WP 2.8 blog in it's own directory http://www.example.com/wordpress. Now I am wanting the blog to show up on the main url http://www.example.com. So I went on to do the changes like described in this article:

   http://codex.wordpress.org/Giving_WordPress_Its_Own_Directory

   But when I came to this part:

   # Go to the Administration > Settings > General panel.
   # In the box for WordPress address (URI): change the address to the new location of your main WordPress core files.
   # In the box for Blog address (URI): change the address to the new location, which should match the WordPress address (URI).
   # Click Update Options.

   I can't find an Update Options button or field anywhere. Where is that suppossed to be? On the general settings page i do not have any save changes or anything button. I tried changing the blog url and not pressing anything but that obviously doesn't save anything.

   Can somebody tell me what i am missing here.
   Thanks,
   Hannah

   it is at the bottom or the page. If it is not there, then you are in trouble (I dont think should be the case).

   If it is not there, try reuploading wp-admin and wp-contents folders

   Great idea... I had that one myself. But...
   I can't! The scrollbar hits the bottom before there is a button...

   Thanks for the suggestion:)

   Hi again... I figuered it out. I had to deaktivate one of all the plugins that are aktivated and then the whole general settings page shows up again... It tried it with several different plugins and it was any one of them and only one at a time. Wierd but it's working now...
   Thanks,
   Hannah
