    I have a blogging community that I just created a few minutes ago, and needed some help because this is my first time making one.

    I wanted to make my Wordpress my default domain page.

    I wanted my WordPress to be:
    http://www.BSTsites.net/

    not:

    http://www.BSTsites.net/wordpress/



    Anyone know how to do this? please do let me know in a PM or Reply!

    Thanks,
    SDN

    You probably copied the folder (wordpress) too on your server. You must upload only the files

    just change the installation directory in the settings and move all the files via FTP to the root of the domain

    Just move ALL files in your 'Wordpress' folder directly to the map above, the root of your server.
    Then delete the WP folder and it is installed on your homepage :)

    It's a bit common sense imo ;)

    You have the "Wordpress" folder install on your domain. To get yoursite.com to display your wordpress files, you need to install the files inside the folder on the root domain, not the folder itself.

    If you still don't get it, just contact your host, they can do it for you in about minute.
