I need to move the WordPress install to the Root directory but still have the Blog posts show up at /blog/ so after I move the blog, all the Post URLs will remain the same.

    1. Create an empty page with the slug blog.
    2. Go to Settings/Reading and set that page as Posts page.
    3. Go to Settings/Permalinks and set the URL pattern to /blog/%postname%/.

    That should do it.
