Should I start from scratch here?
No. Just change the URL for your blog to the new address. WordPress still thinks it’s installed in the old subfolder. It is looking for your stylesheet here;
//www.growinggroceries.com/wp02/wp-content/themes/green-bug-10/green-bug-10/style.css …instead of here;
//www.growinggroceries.com/wp-content/themes/green-bug-10/green-bug-10/style.css
Hop into your database and change the blog URL(s) to;
//www.growinggroceries.com
instead of
//www.growinggroceries.com/wp02
…update your permalinks, and I should think that would fix it.
[EDIT]
I didn’t catch this earlier, but it looks like you may have a nested theme folder issue as well.
/themes/green-bug-10/green-bug-10/style.css
Do you mean my mysql database? Or something else? I looked though everything in my mysqladmin and couldn’t see where to change location.
Sorry for not understanding, I’m kinda new to all this. Thanks much for the help.
Do you mean my mysql database?
Yes. When you say “mysqladmin”, do you mean the MySql GUI common on a windows box? Or.. is this something you are seeing in your host-provided administration panel such as “cPanel” or “Plesk”?
If you have to use the MySql Administrator GUI and you have the query browser installed along with access priveledges, find your database and select it. From there you want the wp_options (or whatever your prefix is, _options). You can right click and edit the table information if query browser is installed. Option_id 1, siteurl. From there it becomes obvious what needs to be edited.
If you have phpMyAdmin available, it’s a snap. Not knowing your hosting arrangement or how much control you have over your server, I will refer you to a link that may shed some light on what needs to be done.

It’s not really as hard as it may seem at first. Find out from your host what database tools are available to you first, then search out how to use it. phpMyadmin is very common, and by far (my opinion), the easiest to use.
Here is a quick run-down on what phpMyAdmin is as well.

Again, it looks like a mountain to climb the first time around, but it really isn’t. Step one is to find out exactly what database tools you have at your disposal.
Thanks, man I really appriciate it. Bear with me one more time.
I’m using vDeck, and I couldn’t find phpmyadmin on there so I’m using the MySql Administrator GUI. I got to my database and wp_options, but apparently I don’t have the query browser installed because right clicking does not give me any options other than what you noramlly get when you right-click a link.
Yay! Got it to work. Thanks
