ftp on wordpress help

Is public_html the root domain

Yes.

public_html>wp-admin the wordpress file

No. From the sounds of it, WP is already installed in the domain root.

When you download WordPress you’ll see that it has structure. The index.php along with about a dozen other files go in the root. Upload the wp-admin, wp-includes, and wp-content folders as is into the root.

basically my overall goal is to get the /home out of my pages (ex: example.com/home/about us, example.com/home/blog, example.com/home/contact

how should i proceed?

Did you install WordPress in the public_html/home folder? If yes, is it still within that folder?

according to firezilla i dont have a public_html/home folder

Where is your wp-config.php file? In public_html?

yea, public_html

Since WP is already in the root folder, you should not be following the “give wordpress its own directory” instructions unless you want to move it out of root to a /home folder. And it sounds like you don’t.

What urls are in Settings -> General?

mba2go.com
mba2go.com

Your site is already in root. Try resetting your custom permalinks back to the default setting via Settings -> Permalinks. If this works, then review Using_Permalinks before setting a custom permalink structure back up again.
