I develop locally so the wordpress folder is under a subdirectory. A folder inside the www.

I saw the wordpress guide about moving the index.php and .htaccess and etc. but I don't want that.

I still want to access the site by appending folder names to the localhost address.

I just want to remove the index.php.

Answer 1

you can easily change the sub directory link in database of wordpress in wp_options table having column name option_name. In optio_name there is two rows having name

• siteurl
• home
