 * Hello,
 * I have installed wordpress. But to go to the site, I have to type in [http://www.site.com/wordpress](http://www.site.com/wordpress).
   I would like to set it up so I can type in [http://www.site.com](http://www.site.com)
   and the wordpress site comes up. Is there a way around this. If so please let
   me know. Thank you
 * jr

 * I have same problem as jrsmth. How to altered your problem ” jrsmth”. Please 
   let me know. I already bought one host for my wordpress blog from my local host
   service group. They gave me my FTP server, username and password. Then I did 
   login by its in Net2FTP.com. But I can see in my root directory only 2 files.
   One is (up) file and another is (cgi-bin) file. didn’t see (Public html) file
   or (htdocs)file. So Where can I upload WordPress file. I did uploaded wordpress
   file under of root folder. After that I typed my domain name. I saw only WHITE
   INDEX OF page.If I type [http://www.mysite.com/wordpress](http://www.mysite.com/wordpress).
   I can see my site. What is my fault. Please Let me know. Thank you.

 * I got it. I did my wordpress installed file with folder. That why my domain is
   not working as [http://mysite.com](http://mysite.com). I pick up all of files
   from inside ther wordpress folder and I made archive as Zip. After then I did
   reinstall. Now my domain is working as [http://mysite.com](http://mysite.com).
