 * Sorry, I’m not very tech savvy (this is my first blog) but I’ll try deleting 
   the htaccess file (the permalink already is at default. By the way, I guess I
   wasn’t very clear earlier-I didn’t move the index file, it is still in both folders.

 * Moshu,
 * Sorry for the late reply. I changed both the W and P, but it still didn’t work.
   The rest of my core files are still in the wordpress folder, but the index and
   htaccess are in the root.
 * I also went in and updated the permalinks to the default, and copy and pasted
   that address into the hataccess, which was ([http://awesome-golf-tips.com/?p=123](http://awesome-golf-tips.com/?p=123))
   Is this the right address? After doing that, now I get this error message:
 * I encountered an unrecoverable server error. Please go back and try again.
 * I can’t even get into the administration area anymore, and the entire site seems
   to be down. It must have something to do with what I copy and pasted into the
   htaccess.

 * Moshu,
 * I tried those suggestions, along with doodlebee’s about channging the case of
   the W, but I’m still getting the same error message. Not sure what to do…

 * Jeremy,
 * I actually used those instructions, without any success. I might have some settings
   wrong I’m unaware of; for whatever reason, I’m still getting that error message.
