I followed this http://codex.wordpress.org/Giving_WordPress_Its_Own_Directory which seemed to be the right one to follow. Difference is I’m not moving the index.php to the root, I’m moving it to another subfolder. Should the index.php code read something other than:

/** Loads the WordPress Environment and Template */
require(‘./wordpress/wp-blog-header.php’);
?>

Just FYI, for all those who use XO hosting… here’s the fix they gave us:

In the wp-settings.php file, replace

// Fix for IIS, which doesn’t set REQUEST_URI
if ( empty( $_SERVER[‘REQUEST_URI’] ) ) {

// IIS Mod-Rewrite
if (isset($_SERVER[‘HTTP_X_ORIGINAL_URL’])) {
$_SERVER[‘REQUEST_URI’] = $_SERVER[‘HTTP_X_ORIGINAL_URL’];
}
// IIS Isapi_Rewrite
else if (isset($_SERVER[‘HTTP_X_REWRITE_URL’])) {
$_SERVER[‘REQUEST_URI’] = $_SERVER[‘HTTP_X_REWRITE_URL’];
}
else
{
// Some IIS + PHP configurations puts the script-name in the path-info (No need to append it twice)
if ( isset($_SERVER[‘PATH_INFO’]) ) {
if ( $_SERVER[‘PATH_INFO’] == $_SERVER[‘SCRIPT_NAME’] )
$_SERVER[‘REQUEST_URI’] = $_SERVER[‘PATH_INFO’];
else
$_SERVER[‘REQUEST_URI’] = $_SERVER[‘SCRIPT_NAME’] . $_SERVER[‘PATH_INFO’];
}

// Append the query string if it exists and isn’t null
if (isset($_SERVER[‘QUERY_STRING’]) && !empty($_SERVER[‘QUERY_STRING’])) {
$_SERVER[‘REQUEST_URI’] .= ‘?’ . $_SERVER[‘QUERY_STRING’];
}
}
}

// Fix for PHP as CGI hosts that set SCRIPT_FILENAME to something ending in php.cgi for all requests
if ( isset($_SERVER[‘SCRIPT_FILENAME’]) && ( strpos($_SERVER[‘SCRIPT_FILENAME’], ‘php.cgi’) == strlen($_SERVER[‘SCRIPT_FILENAME’]) – 7 ) )
$_SERVER[‘SCRIPT_FILENAME’] = $_SERVER[‘PATH_TRANSLATED’];

// Fix for Dreamhost and other PHP as CGI hosts
if (strpos($_SERVER[‘SCRIPT_NAME’], ‘php.cgi’) !== false)
unset($_SERVER[‘PATH_INFO’]);

with…

if(isset($_SERVER[‘QUERY_STRING’]) && !empty($_SERVER[‘QUERY_STRING’])) {
$_SERVER[‘REQUEST_URI’] = $_SERVER[‘PHP_SELF’] . ‘?’ . $_SERVER[‘QUERY_STRING’];
} else {
$_SERVER[‘REQUEST_URI’] = $_SERVER[‘PHP_SELF’];
}

It’s definitely the latter. I’ve double checked that. Both the WP address and Blog address are the latter. I even tried making it something different and putting the index.php in a different directory and nothing changed it.
