I have a domain that that is hosted in /home/account/public_html I have to move the data to /home/account/public_html/wordpress/ How do I redirect the site's home without having a file to do the redirecting? By that I mean that instead of going to: and it will display the contents of /home/account/public_html/wordpress/ I hope I made it clear.

  The Wordpress documentation should be helpful: [url=http://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress]Moving WordPress " WordPress Codex

  Hi, Copy the data to the /home/account/public_html/wordpress folder and then change the documentroot in httpd.conf and restart the apache service. Regards,

  I have the data in /home/account/public_html/wordpress I added a virtual host where [QUOTE] DocumentRoot "/home/account/public_html/wordpress" ServerName ServerAlias www.
  When I go to it takes me to /wordpress I do not have a redirect (I had one and removed it) and I restarted httpd. Any suggestions?

  After clearing the cache it looks like apache's virtual host is not working properly. I will go to the apache area and get that resolved. Thanks.

  Hello :) The following post should be useful to you: Modifying the "documentroot" value This is the preferred method over manually editing the httpd.conf file. Thank you.

  Hi, Already included the steps to modify the documentroot in /var/cpanel/userdata/cpanelusername/domain.com file, not sure why it was not included in the reply.... anyways, the issue must have been resolved :)
