(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.
