Someone
blogging about cars and never WordPress shouldn't have WordPress in the URL.
Couldn't agree more. Perhaps this should be dealt with at the
installation stage?
<http://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_WordPress> does mention it but
perhaps it could emphasised more? In fact maybe the whole 5 minute guide
could do with an overhaul? There are lots of references to "directories"
and subdirectories" whilst people seem more used to "folders" these days.
Sample rewrite of Step 5:
5. Get ready to upload the WordPress files to your web server:
# If you want WordPress to run your main site (e.g.
http://example.com/), upload all of the contents of the 'wordpress'
folder (but *not* the folder itself) to your web server.
# If you want to have WordPress to have its own folder on your web site
(e.g. http://example.com/blog/), rename the wordpress folder on your
computer to your preferred name (e.g. blog) and then upload the entire
folder to your web server.
Thoughts?
