First, are you running your website on Plesk or cPanel or Virtualmin?

Secondly did you do a manual install of the database and WP files to your file manager or did you use a script like Softaculous 1 touch install?

Third what Theme are you using? Is there a special customization section for settings based on the theme?

I can’t think of any reason in general why the WP Settings –> General website url or alternate url would be grayed out? that doesn’t make much sense unless there is another factor at play

Seriously?

what part of ‘Enter the address here if you want your site home page to be different from your WordPress installation directory.’ doesn’t make sense to all you developers and designers. I mean come on, why would you be so silly as to think you could really use another url? oh because that’s what the sentence above implies? oh ok

So those of you that are new and may not know, you can either put a redirect statement in your htaccess file or if you’re not sure how to do that there is at least 1 WP plugin that will do the redirect for you. Personally I prefer doing it myself.
