# Virtual Host Issue?

 * I have recently installed wordpress on my CentOS7 machine.
    Ideally I would like
   my wordpress site to be hosted on [http://www.zenels.com](http://www.zenels.com)
   however I am having some issues doing this.
 * Currently the wordpress folder is located in
    /var/www/zenelswordpress/wordpress
 * When I set this as the document root for my server the desired effect is achieved
   but when I attempt to use dashboard links to customize and edit my site they 
   are all set to something like zenels.com/wordpress/wp-admin.php which produces
   a 404 based on the current document root
 * If I set the document root to
    /var/www/zenelswordpress I am able to use the 
   dashboard buttons to navigate but zenels.com displays the apache2 test page.
 * What would be the best solution here?
 * EDIT: I should also mention that when I have the documentroot pointed at /var/
   www/zenelswordpress/wordpress I am able to access wp-admin by going to zenels.
   com/wp-admin and this works fine but is there a way to get the toolbar at the
   top of your page working?

 * In settings->general, what do you have for the two URL fields? Did you make changes
   to the virtual hosting or URL *after* you first logged in to WordPress?
