 * Hey guys,
 * I’ve moved my wordpress blog from the root to another folder /blog/ but now I’m
   experiencing problems getting it to function properly.
 * I first backed-up the database before I did anything. Than I installed a new 
   wordpress in the /blog/
 * After that I imported the database .sql file into the new database, but the blog
   didn’t even show. Then I copied the wordpress files including “wp-content” into
   the new folder /blog/.
 * When I did that the blog shows up, but when I click on any of the posts it gives
   me this error.
 * “Warning: require(/home/jimmyro/public_html/wp-includes/load.php) [function.require]:
   failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/jimmyro/public_html/
   wp-settings.php on line 21
 * Fatal error: require() [function.require]: Failed opening required ‘/home/jimmyro/
   public_html/wp-includes/load.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/
   php’) in /home/jimmyro/public_html/wp-settings.php on line 21″
 * Here’s the url: jimmyroos.com | Helping you become the best you can be
 * I’d appreciate your ideas on how to fix this.
 * Jimmy

 * Have a look at [the codex](http://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress) and follow
   the steps on there.
