 * Did you change the DNS at your domain registrar to poing to your hosting provider?
 * When i go to this url –
    [http://st-johns.congregation.com/](http://st-johns.congregation.com/)
   I get a domain for sale page.

 * No I didn’t change the DNS, just installed WordPress to st-johns.congregation.
   com/English_blog because I wasn’t sure whether I might want to transfer all the
   site www2.st-john.or.jp over to st-johns.congregation.com in the future and it
   is bilingual. Should I have installed to st-johns.congregation.com in the first
   place? Is that the reason why I’m getting the errors I am? If so, is it easy 
   to get BlueHost to move them over I wonder?
 * Many thanks for your help.

 * Sorry, I’m confused.
    Where is your site hosted? If it’s bluehost, then when 
   I go to st-johns.congregation.com I should see the bluehost.com site. Right now,
   I’m seeing a weird domain market page. It doesn’t look like your domain is being
   hosted anywhere, so I’m not sure what you mean when you say you’ve installed 
   WordPress.
 * If your site is bilingual, you don’t need two installations of WordPress, these
   are multilingual plugins that allow you to have just one.

 * Yes it is hosted with bluehost and I am contacting them right now to get this
   sorted out. It seems that, in my infant stage of using/installing WordPress, 
   I have messed up fierce.
 * Thank you.

 * The site should have read: st-johns-congregation.com and the blog is at st-johns-
   congregation.com/English_blog.
 * My question is still: Should I have installed WordPress to the default st-johns-
   congregation.com instead of st-johns-congregation.com/English_blog for the post
   links to work? And if so, if I redirect the database entry to read st-johns-congregation.
   com and move over WordPress on the ftp to st-johns-congregation.com should the
   site still load correctly and will it rectify the 400 Bad requests?
 * Thanking you.

 * Sorted it out, thank you. I had permalinks settings set to “custom” instead of“
   default”. Now the error messages have disappeared.
