Sorry, I have already uninstalled the plugin. If I find time to troubleshoot this with you I will reinstall and post here again.

Oh, and yes, you understand this 100% correctly. 🙂

I have a couple questions… You wrote:

Note: this will remove the subfolder occurrence from your permalinks but your website and permalinks will still work. So a page like http://website.com/site/about will now be http://website.com/about. Your dashboard will still be accessible through http://website.com/site/wp-admin

So does that mean that all my old posts (for example http://www.website.com/site/post01) will be changed to http://www.website.com/post01? Or will old ones remain as was and only future posts appear without the “/site”?

I don’t want the old post links / permalinks to change at all because I have a Facebook and Twitter account that has links to all the posts. So if the old post links / permalinks change, all those social media links will no longer work.

In Settings > Reading I actually have it set to show my latest posts, which I don’t want to change.

In my FTP I have it set up so the .com goes to my “public_html/index.html” which is the splash page. And clicking on the logo on the splash page goes to the main bulk of the site, the WordPress install, which is in a sub-folder, so essentially “public_html/site/”

In Settings > General, my WordPress Address (URL) is set to “http://website/site/” and same as the Site Address (URL) “http://website/site/”. But as I said, I’ve tinkered with these in the past and encountered issues, so I am hesitant to try those again. Unless someone can convince me it’s safe to do so!

I know if I alter where my domain points to I will be in trouble (permalinks will be destroyed).
