    I have just installed wordpress on my new domain.
    The plan is then to add the Market Theme to make this an ecommerce site.

    Have set this up in the root directory in a folder named blog
    ie http://www.craftyqueen.com/blogit does not show there

    I am getting a notice that all is working ???? when I go to
    http://www.craftyqueen.com

    I am not able to access the admin either???
    http://www.craftyqueen.com/blog/wp-admin/install.php
    I get an error message.... "This either means that the username and password information in your wp-config.php file is incorrect....."
    I have check those details and that is correct.

    Any suggestions what I should do now???.... I am stumped.
    Thanks so much for any assistance in advance...not easy being a novice.

    The page I see at craftyqueen.com just says that the Apache HTTP Server is working properly.

    If you want people to see your wordpress install as your main site, you need to move it up one level, out of the "blog" directory. This is referred to as "installing wordpress in the root directory." Right now, you have it in a subdirectory.

    Make sure you have created a database for wordpress and entered in all the correct information in your wp-config.php file.
