Support » Fixing WordPress » Godaddy domain name root

  • My client is sharing domain name with his hosting plan.
    I want wordpress to be right under the domain name with out creating a folder.

    Is there a way to keep wordpress under domain name without creating a folder in godaddy?

    I m not sure if it a good idea to post my client’s link here.

    thanks

  • Wait, you want your wordpress on the root? to display it on “www.YOURWEBSITE.ext” and not on “www.YOURWEBSITE.ext/wordpress”?

    Then worry no more, using FTP, when you are uploading wordpress on your site, just upload the contents inside the wordpress folder, not the wordpress folder itself, but the inside of it. I don’t know if I explained it well. let’s try again.

    Go on wordpress folder, and upload all the things you see there to your hosting site.

    This may restart you again, so have a backup of your “themes” codes, so you won’t have to do again from scratch. Have fun.

    What does that mean? Does the domain already land at an existing site?

    As mentioned above, just put the contents of the unzipped /wordpress/ folder wherever you want them to be and then use domain.com/index.php via htaccess or whatever to land on and run WordPress right there.
