I have recently moved my wordpress twenty eleven sites to network solutions. Network Solutions has changed my URL to another url. What I'm gathering is that I need to put this into a sub-directory. I can't understand the directions on wordpress for this. I need step by step instructions. I have put my questions in parentheses above the steps wordpress has given me. Thanks you anyone who can get me out of this hole!

(I believe we did this already when moving it to Network Solutions )
1. Create the new location for the core WordPress files to be stored (we will use /wordpress in our examples). (On linux, use mkdir wordpress from your www directory. You'll probably want to use "chown apache:apache" on the wordpress directory you created.)
(This is self explanatory)
2. Go to the General panel.

(Is this the URL I get from Network Solutions? i.e. 0345009.netsolhost.com/RRBlog)
3. In the box for WordPress address (URL): change the address to the new location of your main WordPress core files. Example: http://example.com/wordpress

(Where do I get this root directory URL, I can't even find the Root Directory in Wordpress)
4. In the box for Site address (URL): change the address to the root directory's URL. Example: http://example.com
Click Save Changes. (Do not worry about the error message and do not try to see your blog at this point! You will probably get a message about file not found.)

(Are my core files the content.php? and where exactly am I moving them to?)
5. Move your WordPress core files to the new location (WordPress address).

(All together I can't find the index.php or the .htaccess, probably because I can't find the directory which seems to be the main issue here.)
6.Copy (NOT MOVE!) the index.php and .htaccess files from the WordPress directory into the root directory of your site (Blog address). The .htaccess file is invisible, so you may have to set your FTP client to show hidden files. If you are not using pretty permalinks, then you may not have a .htaccess file.

examine the quantity of memory (RAM) on your computing gadget. once you've 64mb or 128mb you should improve. RAM in a computing gadget makes a large distinction in how briskly you browse cyberspace. there is multiple issues that ought to result the performance of your surfing velocity, no longer basically secret agent ware or malware. it is the try, became it quickly at one time and now that's sluggish? or has it continuously been sluggish? If that's slowly degraded over the months then that's something operating interior the history of your computing gadget or, like you reported, an endemic or secret agent ware. If that's under no circumstances been as quickly as you go with then that's the quantity of RAM on your computing gadget. Double inspite of you've and also you may see the form. reliable luck!

have you tried contacting network solutions? it's their setup so they would know best. i'll attempt what i can. do a full backup of your site's content/files before doing anything.



1. this is just a directory to hold your wp installation files

3. this is where you should confirm w/NetSoln. typically when i use wp's "5 minutes install" this is on my domain/wordpress through a web browser. "the box for WordPress address" sounds like NetwSoln's integrated installer on their control panel.

4. again, it's best if you consult with NetSoln but it seems like this is in their interface. sounds like your domain name.

5. idk

6. idk
