My 2009 resolution is to start a photoblog. I've uploaded PixelPost 1.7.1 to the server, installed it correctly (I think) and have uploaded a photo to test it. All seems to work well.

My question is that when I go to www.<mydomain>.com, I don't get anything. I have to go to www.<mydomain>.com/pixelpost_v1.7.1 for the page I created to appear. How do I make this change so that my page appears at <mydomain>.com? When I uploaded PixelPost to the server, I created a directory (PixelPost_v.1.7.1) so that I wouldn't be confused by files already on the server with the files that come with Pixelpost. Do I need to put all the pixelpost files in the root directory?

Happy New Year,

Todd

Yes, you have to put it in the root directory, OR add a index.html in root directory with the lines:

<SCRIPT>
location.href = "http://www.<mydomain>.com/pixelpost_v1.7.1"
</SCRIPT>

this will automatically redirect to your pixelpost

why don't you move everything out of the pixelpost folder in the root folder?
