I first deleted that index.html file. No luck there. Same error message.

Then I followed “Moving a Root install to its own directory”

This meant I copied all the files from my example.com/home folder into example.com/wordpress folder.

At this point I realized I am already in a subdirectory, but I did it anyway because the result should be the same. My wordpress should be chilling in a subdirectory and my main page should simply be example.com.

Anyway, I followed all steps through the end of “Using a pre-existing subdirectory install” and I’m in the same boat. If I rename the Site address I lose connection to my wordpress site altogether until I modify the footer.php in my example.com/home/wp-content/themes/{theme} folder.

Now I’m back where I started but have two subdirectories with the WP stuffs in it. It seems like wordpress and/or my site does not like to be pointed to the example.com root directory no matter which subdirectory it is in. So I have to be doing something wrong

I figured out how to get back in via “http://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress”
