Errors casued when moving wordpress site

  • I am trying to move a wordpress site from one directory to another and am encountering a host of issues. The main one seems to be that when i copy the index.php and .htaccess to public_html and then link index.php back to the directory with the rest of the files it not only shows up on the website as error 403 (Forbidden You don’t have permission to access / on this server.) it also gives me 500 error (
    Internal Server Error The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request. Please contact the server administrator, [email protected] and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error. More information about this error may be available in the server error log. Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.)
    on the login page. SO I can’t login to change anything there. I’ve checked the database and the url is correct there so I have no idea what the issue is.

    Any help would be appreciated the url is https://www.uumidland.org if that helps at all as I will be continuing different things to get it to work and thus this status might change.

    UPDATE: I have uploaded the old site back as the url so the website above is the old html site not the wordpress site.

    Also if it helps I have read both the Moving Word Press, Changing Site URL, and the Giving WordPress it’s own directory tutorials and used those instructions to move the files which led to the aforementioned problems. I am still unable to log in at my site either via wp-admin or wp-login (tried both same results). Thank you all again for your help.
