    I think it’s as simple as moving your WordPress files into a new folder called “site,” but leaving the index.php file and .htaccess file in root and then updating index.php with the new /site/… path.

    You should definitely follow the instructions on the link you’ve referenced. You may have to go into the database and change the path by doing a search and replace though.

    Tony, it’s not with Multisite, alas.

    It’s a nightmare with Multisite.

    Marc that may be an older article… The one i referenced says if you are running version 3.5 or newer these are the steps to move your site from root… I was just wondering if anyone has done it yet…

    However after a little testing it is a complete nightmare as Mika has said…

    So instead of trying to move the installation… I just made a new folder called “static” and then moved all my other stuff in there and very easily cleaned up the root folder…

    Might not work for everyone i.e. a client is paying you and makes you move it… But for me and my own personal this is much easier than trying to move it from root…

    Or just get it right from the beginning ??
