    Hi!

    If I’m understanding your post correctly, the only step you took to move your site to the root of your domain was to change the address in the WordPress dashboard. There’s a few more steps involved in moving a site than that.

    I recommend you read the Moving WordPress document here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress — specifically the section called “Moving Directories On Your Existing Server”.

    Cheers.

    Thank you very much for your quick response Shawn. I really appreciate it. Yes you understood my question correctly.

    I have a follow-up question.

    Could you let me know how to undo the change in the address on WordPress dashboard?

    I don’t know how to do this as I no longer have access to the wp-admin dashboard. I would like to restore everything as before.

    Thank you very much for your help.

    I have a similar problem, on a different thread already I know, I followed the protocol for changing the site name from a sub-directory install of WP. The move worked fine, my site is running but I still can’t get into the admin section which I thought would still be the same address ….. I think the specific article that Mangalamstudio wants is this one

    http://codex.wordpress.org/Giving_WordPress_Its_Own_Directory

    specifically the part about changing from an existing sud directory install.
    You may have the same problem I do with the Admin page though …I am interested in that fix myself.
