    My site jsphotofx.com has the WP files in a directory called new-site. I created that site on WP-Engine and moved it to a different host. That was my first mistake, WP-engine added some things to the database that I can’t figure out how to delete it (in particular, making it very difficult to update WordPress). So I uploaded a current version of WP to the directory photo-design and got it installed with a new database, works fine. I am copying over the pages one by one, creating new pages with the same file names, and copying the text on the pages, updating the photo links. The photos have been uploaded to the new directory as well. So far, so good.

    Here’s the rub. I’m not sure how to redirect my site from the new-site directory to the photo-design directory. I’m guessing it has something to do with the .htaccess file? In the general settings I have the WP URL as http://jsphotofx.com/photo-design and the site address as http://jsphotofx.com . What else do I need to do to make the site appear?
