Have loaded WP onto root directory but it's not overriding placeholder html
-
I think I am up to re-install (after blowing away db, files etc) #5.
I have had success in loading up the wp files to the root of my domain. Now when I go into use any theme (even default) and it defers to my existing placeholder html page.
I have read untold blogs, forums and advice on this issue ranging from ‘it’s an .htaccess issue, all the way through to ‘swapping out the original index.html and associated image files to home.php’etc. but haven’t had success with the multiple pieces of advice.
Is there something I am missing in order for wp to over-ride the existing one page I have written in order to put a placeholder onto the web? My host company (ziphosting) does not have a cpanel so it was pretty tedious ftp’ing the files only to find I now have to fiddle with code (not a coder by any stretch)
