Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Installed in /wordpress want to move to rootNevermind – the installer left the old index file. I deleted it and that fixed it…
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Blog HomepageI just had wordpress installed and asked not to have everything installed to /wordpress but it happened anyway. The last time I tried to fix this I just destroyed the whole site – it still lays in ruins on another domain. I just went through the instructions and everything is already set as shown in the directions referenced above. The only thing I haven’t tried is setting an absolute path.
Can anyone make this easy? I just want to blog. My site is stockxc.com

In reply to: Getting the root to work as the main page– I moved the index.php file from the /blog folder and added the code you gave me.
– I changed the blog address at Options-General, by taking away “/blog”
– I updated Permalinks by clicking “Update Permalinks” (I have them “Date and Name based”.
Now when I go to “View Site” it automatically directs to lastcity.org (good!) but there’s still nothing there.
Do I also need a blank index.php file in the /blog folder? Or am I missing something else?

In reply to: Getting the root to work as the main pageWhen you say “this index.php file” do you mean create a new one or grab the file from somewhere in /blog?
And if I do create one, from which kind of basic page template (using Dreamweaver). I don’t see a .php template…
Many thanks!

In reply to: Get rid of “Just another wordpress blog”Take a look: the tagline and About this site are the same. I’d like About this site to be more descriptive without cluttering the image at the top.

In reply to: Help! Strange error…Ok I’ve since learned what the path ver/www/vhosts is. I’ve also re-uploaded the files to the server. Same error. I’m thinking there must be some files or links hiding out giving me trouble.

In reply to: Help! Strange error…One thing that puzzles me the most is: var/www/vhosts
What the heck path is that???

In reply to: Posting to my own domainYup that is what I needed to know.
To answer your question Ivovic: What I am trying to do is to post to my WordPress site (lastcity.org) by using Jott.com
If you haven’t heard of jott.com, check it out, it’s pretty cool.
I have a feeling though that due to jott.com limitations, one can only post to a wordpress.com hosted account rather than my independent lastcity.org wordpress account.
That’s why I was trying to link them.

In reply to: Posting to my own domainI have a website: lostcity.org
I’ve loaded wordpress onto it.
During the installation process, wordpress gives you a name a password to use for your website.
This name and password does not work on wordpress’s website, only your own. The difference is, my blog is set up on my own server.
I have since signed up on wordpress’s website for a username and password hoping to bridge the two accounts.
Does that make sense? I know, a little confusing…
