Thanks for the link, but my wordpress is already moved actually. No trouble there.
Just wondering about the way the URL is displayed.
I noticed the
WordPress address (URI):
Blog address (URI):
Options in “General Options” in the admin panel. Currently they are set to…
http://www.japannewbie.com/otsumamimusic/wp
http://www.japannewbie.com/otsumamimusic/wp
respectively.
Would changing these to, http://www.otsumamimusic.com help me out? Or would that just throw off all my links?
I would rather have this entire website be just http://www.otsumamimusic.com/* rather than occasionally flipping to http://www.japannewbie.com/otsumamimusic/*
Thanks for any help!
Yes, the link that I gave you mentions changing both the site_url and home values in the database. These values are controlled by both “WordPress address (URI)” and “Blog address (URI)”.

Can these values in the DB be change just by using the admin panel to make the changes? Or must it be done in the DB manually?
Also, could anyone explain the difference in meaning between the WordPress address and the Blog Address?
thanks again~
If you could access admin panel, then go ahead.
WordPress address is the directory of all wordpress files e.g. mysite.com/wp
If the Blog address is the same, then visitor go to you blog by typing mysite.com/wp
If you set Blog address to be mysite.com, then visitor could go to your blog by typing mysite.com/wp. With this set up, you have to move index.php to mysite.com as well
