using wordpress index.php

[wagsandwoofs]

I have installed wordpress thru installatron in the /public_html/wordpress directory and need to know how to have it run when someone enters www.wagsandwoofs.ca.

It looks as if you've got it figured out, but for everyone else: remove or rename the index.html file.

Thread moved; it's a user issue.

@Jeff It is not WordPress running at the front page of www.wagsandwoofs.ca

@wagsandwoofs You should not install WordPress in "/public_html/wordpress" but you should install it in /domains/wagsandwoofs.ca/public_html directory

@wagsandwoofs I misunderstood your problem. I see you have installed WordPress at this url: http://wagsandwoofs.ca/wordpress/ - to have that content in front page you should do this:

1: Copy/download index.php file from public_html/wordpress/index.php

2: Edit index.php file and change line number 17 to be this:

require('./wordpress/wp-blog-header.php');

3: Upload index.php to public_html/index.php

4: Log in to WordPress adminpanel at http://wagsandwoofs.ca/wordpress/wp-login.php and click on "Settings" and then on "General"

5: On "General settings" page change the content of text field for "WordPress Address (URL)" to be this: http://wagsandwoofs.ca/wordpress - then click "Save changes"
