Where I'm at:
Networksolutions is host:
Root Directory by Default is htdocs
Servers set to point http://www.shilohpostcards.com to htdocs
shilohpostcards.com to htdocs
WordPress installed in subdirectory in htdocs named blog
wordpress wp-config.php set wp address to shilohpostcards.com/blog
url address to shilohpostcards.com/blog
In root (htdocs) there is an index.php file that reads:
<?php
/**
* Front to the WordPress application. This file doesn't do anything, but loads
* wp-blog-header.php which does and tells WordPress to load the theme.
*
* @package WordPress
*/
/**
* Tells WordPress to load the WordPress theme and output it.
*
* @var bool
*/
define('WP_USE_THEMES', true);
/** Loads the WordPress Environment and Template */
require ('./blog/wp-blog-header.php');[Please post code & markup between backticks or use the code button. Your posted code may now have been permanently damaged by the forum's parser.]
Also in root is htaccess file which reads:
Options -Indexes
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
(I don't remember if these were already in htdocs or if I copied and put them there, I've confused myself)
Using http://www.shilohpostcards/blog/ in a browser works
I want however for http://www.shilohpostcards in a browser to go directly to /blog/
I've read everything and screwed things up several times
including locking myself out of wp admin panel
(which is why addresses are now hard coded in wp-config.php)
I know I should be able figure this out but I scared myself and
now I just want help from those who know what they are doing instead
of crossing my fingers and hoping for the best.
I need to know what the wp-config.php addresses should read?
Then can I go into network solutions and change settings from htdocs to htdocs/blog (they offer that as option)?
If I do these, do I still need the index.php and htaccess files in htdocs and are the ones there correct?
I tried to provide all information relevant.
Thank you
