   I'm trying to get the index.php of

   http://www.elepent.com/wordpress/

   where wp is installed to show up at elepent.com/

   When I follow the codex I run into the following issues:
   step 7 - my .htacces file is not in the wordpress/ folder, it's already in the www/ folder, I don't know if that matters.
   step 8 & 9 - the theme I'm working with doesn't have this line in the index.php file, and I'm not sure where it might be [i've looked high and low, but my understanding of php is pretty limited]

   I tried switching the theme back to one of the default themes, just to see if I could get it to work, but I'm not having any luck there either.

   Would it be easier to just re-install everything into the root directory and deal with it that way, or is there a simple fix for this?

   Thanks in advance.

   8+9 don't refer to your theme but the root of WP

   Oh wait, the codex is assuming I've installed it originally into the root directory isn't it?

   oh, and that codex page is spot on if you read it carefully.

   no, you just miss read it. you don't edit your theme at all

   No I know that, but the theme modifies the root index.php file.
