I have a hard time understanding how the one click wordpress installation is set-up.
What I’d like to do is move wordpress from mysite.net (not my real site url) to mysite.net/blog/ and have a new page that I can code myself when you try to access to mysite.net (I’m not really a web coder, so probably nothing fancy). Like this, I could make other stuff mysite.net/whatever/ and such
Can anyone point me to the right direction?

Well I never used 1 click wordpress but how hard could it be… <br>From what I found the wordpress installation is located in /var/www, you have to create a new folder for example blog and move wordpress in the new folder. Next think is to update your web server configuration, in your case Apache, if any are made. The new page you want to create will be located in /var/www, and thats it! Nothing hard I guess.
Hi Alex! <br> <br>That’s actually pretty simple. You just need to move the contents of “/var/www/” to “/var/www/blog” You can do it like: <br> <br><pre> <br>mkdir /var/www/blog <br>mv /var/www/* /var/www/blog/ <br></pre> <br> <br>You should now be able to access Wordpress at http://mysite.net/blog <br> <br>If you cerate a file named index.html in “/var/www/” you’ll now see it at http://mysite.net
It’s actually located in /home/wordpress/public_html <br> <br>So, you think if I create a new folder called blog inside public_html and move everything inside it, and then create my new front pages in public_html it will be fine? Hmm, maybe. I’ll check it out <br> <br>Thanks
