Cangeing blog directory Saturday 2005-12-03
Changing the directory of the WP blog in the same document root very simple.
You can move the WordPress installation to another directory on the same server or to any other server, using a strict routine as outlined elsewhere [ link here ]. If however you just want to rename the WP directory, it is a very simple two step process.
In this example my WP directory is <docroot>/wordpress and I want it to be <docroot>/blog, and the process goes like this:
1. From the admin Dashboard, under Options, I change the WordPress address (URI) and the Blog address (URI) to read <docroot>/blog
2. Using an FTP client, I rename the wordpress directory to blog
That it! Everything works fine including the permalinks.
Watch out!
This is not feasible for a blog, that’s out in the open!
All links pointing to your blog posts or categories by permalink are destroyed.
