# Pages – Intersite linking

 * I am having some URL weirdness on my site. Was creating a direct link to one 
   of my Pages, however I can’t use the shortened format as recommended in the Codex.
   I can only get the link to go properly if I use the absolute link to my site.
 * And, it seems that the absolute link to my pages is very strange..
 * my site is here… [http://www.otsumamimusic.com](http://www.otsumamimusic.com)
   
   however all the links after that become [http://www.japannewbie.com/otsumamimusic/](http://www.japannewbie.com/otsumamimusic/)
   it’s true that my otsumamimusic site is hosted on the same server, and is in 
   fact a sub directory of my main japannewbie.com site… but I didn’t expect the
   URL’s to function like this.
 * Details of my linking battle are below. Any ideas on this?
 * `
    Example: <a title="Copyright information" href="wordpress/?page_id=14">Copyright
   1996-2006</a> Our Page: http://www.japannewbie.com/otsumamimusic/wp/?page_id=
   48 Try: <a title="About Us" href="wordpress/?page_id=48">About Us</a> [NO GO]
   Try2: <a title="About Us" href="wp/?page_id=48">About Us</a> [NO GO] Try3: <a
   title="About Us" href="http://www.japannewbie.com/otsumamimusic/wp/?page_id=48"
   >About Us</a> WORKED.

 * Look at the URL settings in Options / General in your Admin section.

 * I have the WordPress URL set as here.
    [http://www.japannewbie.com/otsumamimusic/wp](http://www.japannewbie.com/otsumamimusic/wp)
 * and the blog URL set as here.
    [http://www.japannewbie.com/otsumamimusic/wp](http://www.japannewbie.com/otsumamimusic/wp)
 * Once I tried to change the URL to be [http://www.otsumamimusic.com](http://www.otsumamimusic.com)
   but then things got weird, and I could hardly find the admin page URL again.
 * Does anyone know how I can safely readjust my URL settings to that my blog links
   point to [http://www.otsumamimusic.com/link/](http://www.otsumamimusic.com/link/)
   without the japannewbie.com prefix?
