 * > i added wordpress to my site
 * From your [previous post](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/327073?replies=4),
   you mentioned “you copied folder to the server so that means MYSITE.info/wordpress/
 * To access WP at root, move all the contents of the wordpress directory (but not
   the directory itself) into the root directory of your web site. Delete the old.
   htaccess and drop the tables in database generated in the original install for
   the new WP installation at root.

 * .htaccess file is “hidden” sometimes in your FTP program
 * Just delete the /wordpress/ folder using cpanel File Manager and FTP upload the
   WP folder’s files/folders to the root (make sure you’ve got the correct DB connection
   in your wp-config.php file.
