Perfect. You’re a life saver. Thanks!

Would you recommend re-uploading the files?

Thanks Clayton. While waiting for a response I was doing some tinkering and removed the /wordpress from:

WordPress address (URL): http://Intrepidcanadablog.com/wordpress

and

Site address (URL): http://Intrepidcanadablog.com/wordpress

In Settings, General in WordPress Admin thinking I could move the files using ftp to the root directory and solve my problem. Guess not.

I crashed the blog and I cant access my admin settings anymore, the site is down.

What are my next steps?

No, sorry if I wasn’t clear.

If you visit http://kickthegrind.tv right now, that is my blog hosted through WordPress.com with mydomain.com hosting the domain name. I’m unhappy with how the blog looks and I want to axe that site and set up a WordPress.org blog at the same Domain: kickthegrind.tv

I have run the auto-wordpress set up that mydomain.com offers, so the FTP, mySQL etc.. should all have been set up automatically. I did not go through the “Famous 5min wordpress set-up”.

After the auto-install is completed, I followed the link to finalized the details and preferences at kickthegrind.tv, it leads me to http://kickthegrind.tv/wordpress with an error saying “whoops, what you’re looking for cannot be found”

I’m wondering if I need to delete my WordPress.com blog that is linked with that domain, before I try and set up a WordPress.org blog at the same place.

Or whether I’ve messed something else up…
