    I want to install WordPress, load or insert content and then move all to the default location on my site's server. By default location I mean, http://www.mysite.com . I will use WPress as a kind of content management system.

    So, where will you install it before moving it to the "default location"?

    I will install on my server something like mysite.com/wordp

    I can set the server to, what's the word, default to mysite.com from mysite.com/wordp but that always seems to cause so many unexpected, funky, eye wrinkling, issues.

    OK, so you want to install it in a subdir and when ready to move it to your root? Right?

    Did you have a chance to read about it in the online manual, the Codex?

    Ah, nothing like a flashlight in a dark theater!

    Thank you.
