   I'm running version 2.1.3

   WordPress is installed here: http://harlanvampires.com

   My blog is here: http://harlanvampires.com/blog

   I moved the files to /blog according to the instructions found on the http://codex.wordpress.org/Giving_WordPress_Its_Own_Directory page...and followed all the instructions.

   However, when you view the site, it's all garbled. None of the themes are showing up properly. The dashboard is a wreck. The page seems to be <i>working</i> right. It's just not parsing and viewing right.

   (there is a problem with my sidebar configuration; I'm working on fixing that. but that problem was there before I moved the files over)

   Any ideas? Suggestions? Helpful hints?

   1. Undo the moving to the /blog dir
   2. Delete the /blog dir
   3. Create a page named blog
   4. Set up your site to use permalinks
   5. Work from here to set your static frontpage

   Okay. I tried that.

   It all looks good. But...When I do the reading page bit, when I click "static" and put the page I want to be the front and then the page I want to be the blog - the blog page still shows up as the front page.

   Never mind. It's working now. Thanks for your help.

   I'm just having a slight sidebar issue on the actual "writing blog" page -- but nowhere else on the side. Will have to see what I can do there.

   Thanks again!
