 * Good Afternoon,
 * Could someone please assist me as I am so nervous about screwing things up again.
   I installed wordpress in the following directory [http://www.example.com/label](http://www.example.com/label).
   I want users to be directed to this directory when typing in [http://www.example.com..I](http://www.example.com..I)
   tried forwarding the address but I get errors. Is there anyway for me to resolve
   this issue. If anyone could assist me I would really appreciate this..When I 
   forwarded the domain name…the web host deleted my whole wordpress directory…Luckily
   the db is backed up..
