htaccess does not redirect when uploading WordPress

3 Views

Yesterday, I uploaded a WordPress site on “public_html/wordpress” folder for testing purpose. It worked fine. The URL was “mysite/wordpress“.

But today, I deleted the “wordpress” folder, uploaded WordPress src again to the upper level “public_html” folder. However when I went to “mysite.com“, it still redirects to “mysite/wordpress“. And of course, a 404 error appears because I had previously deleted the “wordpress” folder.

Even if I typed “mysite.com/index.php“, it still redirected to the wrong place “public_html/wordpress“

This is ALL the content of the .htaccess file on “public_html“. 

DirectoryIndex index.php

I’m completely new to wordpress, please helps me ASAP.

  1. This is due to permalink configuration in WordPress. If WP admin is loading then visit permalink setting page and change all links to remove /wordpress from URLs.

    If WP admin is not coming up then via PHPMyAdmin update wp_options table to fix all URLs that have /wordpress in them. (option_id=39 is one of them).
