    You don't have to do anything but installing WP in the root of the website. The website will be website.com, the admin website.com/wp-admin. That WP uses files from the folder website/wp-content doesn't affect the website.

    that is default setup...

    Is it possible to set a WP in different folder structure? That is, frontend(website.com) and backend(admin.website.com) . If we do like this, then it has a high security, I'm correct?

    thanks

    I never checked, but my guess is that the WP "core files" have a lot of crosslinks, which makes that you can't just put the folders somewhere else. There are some ways to secure the wp-admin folder. Read this article for example (there are also threads on this forum about that topic) and (that particular subject is not discussed) read "Hardening WordPress".

    Nope, I don't believe it would make any difference as far as security goes and I'm not even sure it's possible. Not unless you were to edit the core files big time which even then might not work and which would probably screw things up so bad nothing would work. You're just gonna have to make your install as secure as possible and hope for the best like the rest of us.
