Ok I want to say that I am not super Techie, as I usually outsource all of my websites etc. But in the new year I wanted to try to get a better handle of how to do things so I am trying to do all my own websites etc so I can have a better understanding and be able to handle things on my own.

1. I have started a wordpress blog. I have two questions. I am happy with how it looks but it does not show up when I type in my main domain name. I want my blog to show up on the main page.

right now it is at www.mydomain/title

Is this something I can change easily in the dashboard? When setting this up I left the install directory field blank. I thought this would make it appear on the main domain page? I also installed ALL IN ONE SEO plug in. Could something of their have messed this up?

Either if someone can tell me how to fix this it would be great.

2. I also have an affiliate link in my blog. I would like this not to be so obvious and long. Is there a way to hide this? I think it is called cloaking? Can someone explain to me how to do this to my affiliate link?

Thanks,

Matt

    Matt, without posting your URL no one can help you.

    I'm assuming you installed WordPress through your cPanel's Fantastico script install?

    if so it should show up...

    but there could be a setting you need to do and that is in your PHP configuration, make sure you select PHP 5 in the drop-down menu.


    as for link cloaking, here's a link to a plugin you can try:
