Full Version: Wordpress install location and URL
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
When installing the Wordpress package, I installed into a sub-directory of my site:
<<domain>>/blog

I originally tried install Wordpress in my root directory, but got an error, so I moved to blog, which I do kind of like.

Now, I would like to create a URL mapping so that any access to <<domain>> actually redirects to <<domain>>/blog

If I try thing in cpanel, it doesn't seem to work.

http://www.domain.net -> http://www.domain.net/blog

You can either modify your .htaccess file and create a redirect or try using cPanel's built "Redirects" button which is located under the 'Domains' heading.  

cPanel's method would definitely be faster and easier if you are not familiar with creating redirects.  If you are still having issues feel free to submit a ticket a http://support.a2hosting.com and we can take a look at the exact issue you are having.
