  • You need to modify two entries in your database.

    These entries are in wp_options table (note that prefix ‘wp’ might be something different on your site)

    Hi Luka
    Which entries need to change and what do they need to change to?

    You’d want to change rows where column option_name values equals to siteurl and home.

    They should currently be set to https://victorianbuildingandpoolinspections.com.au/wordpress and you want that changed to https://victorianbuildingandpoolinspections.com.au/

    Hi Luka sorry not sure what you mean?

    You might try asking your host for help with this since they installed to a subdirectory… That’s pretty common but not always good.

    Else You can use this tutorial to make your present WordPress run as if it was installed in the webroot directory.

    Changing the addresses without fixing the rest of the problem will break your website but the second method in the above tutorial then works through to fix that allowing your site to run properly.
