¿Está intentando quitar /wordpress/ de la URL de su sitio web?
A veces los principiantes instalan WordPress en un subdirectorio, y esto hace que aparezca /wordpress/ en la URL de su sitio web, como http://example.com/wordpress/.
En este artículo, le mostraremos cómo eliminar /wordpress/ de la URL de su sitio WordPress.
Nota: El método mostrado en este tutorial también funciona para otros subdirectorios.
¿Por qué mi sitio web tiene /wordpress/ en su URL?
WordPress es bastante fácil de instalar, y la mayoría de las empresas de alojamiento de WordPress ofrecen instaladores rápidos de WordPress en sus paneles de control de alojamiento.
Sin embargo, algunos principiantes que instalan su sitio web WordPress manualmente pueden acabar instalándolo accidentalmente en un subdirectorio. La mayoría de las veces, este subdirectorio se llama ‘wordpress’.
Esto suele ocurrir porque los usuarios acaban subiendo la carpeta de wordpress que encuentran dentro de la descarga oficial de WordPress.org.
Veamos cómo corregirlo fácilmente y eliminar /wordpress/ de la URL de tu sitio. Vamos a cubrir tres métodos, y usted puede utilizar estos enlaces para saltar a la que desea utilizar:
Método 1: Empezar de nuevo con una nueva instalación de WordPress
Si acabas de instalar WordPress y no hay contenido en tu sitio web, puedes empezar de nuevo.
Simplemente borre la instalación actual y siga las instrucciones de nuestro tutorial de instalación de WordPress para reinstalar WordPress correctamente.
Si ya ha añadido contenido a su sitio web, existen dos formas sencillas de quitar /wordpress/ de la URL de su sitio. Los cubriremos en los Métodos 2 y 3.
Método 2: Cambiar la dirección de su sitio WordPress
Si ya tienes un sitio WordPress, este método es más fácil y rápido. El inconveniente de este método es que los archivos de medios, como las imágenes, seguirán utilizando /wordpress/ en su URL.
En primer lugar, debe acceder a su área de administrador de WordPress e ir a Ajustes ” General. Observará que los campos “Dirección de WordPress” y “Dirección del sitio” tienen la misma URL.
Debe cambiar la opción “Dirección del sitio” y dirigirla a su dominio raíz, por ejemplo, http://www.example.com y dejar la opción “Dirección de WordPress” como está.
Una vez hecho esto, haz clic en el botón “Guardar cambios” para guardar tus ajustes.
A continuación, debe conectarse a su sitio web mediante un cliente FTP. Una vez allí, vaya al directorio /wordpress/ y descargue los archivos .htaccess e index. php en su ordenador.
Si no se ha podido localizar el archivo .htaccess, puede ser necesario forzar al cliente FTP a mostrar los archivos ocultos. Si utiliza Filezilla, haga clic en Servidor en la barra de menús y seleccione la opción “Forzar mostrar archivos ocultos”.
Una vez que haya descargado ambos archivos en su ordenador, deberá abrir el archivo index. php en un editor de texto como el Bloc de notas. En este archivo, encontrará una línea como esta:
require( dirname( __FILE__ ) . '/wp-blog-header.php' );
Esta línea carga el archivo wp-blog-header.php, obligatorio / requerido / necesario para cargar su sitio WordPress.
Lo que tiene que hacer ahora es introducir la ubicación correcta del archivo sustituyendo la línea existente por ésta:
require( dirname( __FILE__ ) . '/wordpress/wp-blog-header.php' );
Guarde los cambios y suba los archivos index.php y .htaccess desde su ordenador a la raíz de su dominio mediante FTP.
La carpeta raíz es la carpeta principal con la carpeta ‘wordpress’ dentro, y normalmente se llama /www/ o /public_html/.
Eso es todo. Ahora puede visitar su sitio web utilizando el dominio raíz y todo funcionará correctamente.
http://example.com
Sin embargo, si necesita acceder al administrador de WordPress, tendrá que ir a wp-admin dentro del directorio ‘wordpress’ de la siguiente manera:
http://www.example.com/wordpress/wp-admin
Método 3: Mover WordPress al directorio raíz
Este método es más completo y moverá permanentemente su sitio WordPress del subdirectorio a la carpeta raíz de su sitio web.
Paso 1: Crear un paquete duplicador
En primer lugar, debe instalar y activar el plugin Duplicator en su sitio web. Para más detalles, consulte nuestra guía paso a paso sobre cómo instalar un plugin de WordPress.
Una vez activado, debe visitar la página Duplicator ” Ajustes y, a continuación, hacer clic en el botón “Crear nuevo”.
Esto iniciará el asistente del Duplicador, que creará un paquete instalador de su sitio web completo. Haga clic en el botón siguiente para continuar.
A continuación, el plugin realizará algunas exploraciones. Si todo se ve bien, entonces usted puede hacer clic en el botón ‘Build’ en la parte inferior.
Duplicator creará ahora un paquete y le indicará que lo descargue junto con el script de instalación.
Descargue ambos archivos a su ordenador.
Paso 2: Crear una nueva base de datos para una nueva instalación de WordPress
Puede utilizar la base de datos de WordPress existente, pero es mejor crear una nueva para que su antigua base de datos esté a salvo y sin cambios. De esta forma, podrás volver a tu sitio sin muchas complicaciones si algo sale mal.
Debe visitar el Escritorio cPanel de su cuenta de alojamiento, desplazarse hasta la sección “Bases de datos” y, a continuación, hacer clic en el icono “Bases de datos MySQL”.
Después de eso, simplemente proporcione un nombre para su base de datos.
A continuación, haga clic en el botón “Crear base de datos”.
cPanel ahora creará una nueva base de datos para usted. Después de eso, es necesario desplazarse hasta la sección ‘Usuarios MySQL’.
A partir de aquí, deberá proporcionar un nombre de usuario y una contraseña para su nuevo usuario de la base de datos y hacer clic en el botón “Crear un usuario”.
Ahora, necesita asignar permisos de base de datos al nuevo usuario.
Desplácese hasta la sección “Añadir usuario a la base de datos”. Seleccione el usuario de la base de datos que ha creado en el menú desplegable situado junto al campo “Usuario” y, a continuación, seleccione la base de datos. Por último, haga clic en el botón “Añadir”.
Su nueva base de datos ya está lista para ser utilizada en la nueva instalación de WordPress.
Paso 3: Ejecutar el asistente de duplicación
Ahora tiene que subir el paquete de Duplicator y el archivo de instalación que ha descargado antes al directorio raíz de su sitio web.
Este será el directorio que contiene la carpeta/wordpress/.
Una vez subidos ambos archivos, abra el script de instalación en una ventana del navegador. Deberá introducir la URL raíz de su sitio y anteponer /installer.php.
https://example.com/installer.php
Se abrirá el asistente de instalación de Duplicator.
Marque la casilla de términos y condiciones y, a continuación, haga clic en el botón “Siguiente” para continuar.
A continuación, se le pedirá que proporcione la información de la base de datos. Introduce la información de la base de datos que creamos anteriormente en el paso 2.
Después de introducir la información de la base de datos, haga clic en el botón ‘Siguiente’ para continuar. Duplicator descomprimirá la copia de seguridad de la base de datos de WordPress en la nueva base de datos.
A continuación, le pedirá que actualice la URL y la ruta del sitio. No necesitas hacer nada aquí, ya que detectará automáticamente la nueva URL y ruta. Sin embargo, si no lo hace, puede introducir manualmente los detalles aquí.
Duplicator finalizará la migración.
Podrá hacer clic en el botón “Admin Login” para acceder a su sitio web en la nueva ubicación.
Paso 4: Establecer redireccionamientos de subdirectorio a carpeta raíz
Enhorabuena, ha movido correctamente su sitio WordPress del subdirectorio a la carpeta raíz.
Ahora, es el momento de establecer las redirecciones para que sus usuarios y los motores de búsqueda puedan encontrar la nueva ubicación de su sitio web.
En primer lugar, debe conectarse a su sitio de WordPress mediante un cliente FTP y, a continuación, borrar la antigua carpeta /wordpress/.
A continuación, vaya al área de administrador de su sitio WordPress. Puesto que lo ha movido a la raíz de su sitio web, su URL de administrador de WordPress será así:
https://example.com/wp-admin
Ahora, necesitas instalar y activar el plugin Redirection. Para más detalles, consulte nuestra guía paso a paso sobre cómo instalar un plugin de WordPress.
Una vez activado, debe visitar la página Herramientas ” Redirección. El plugin le mostrará un asistente de configuración. Simplemente haga clic en los botones “Continuar la instalación” y “Finalizar la instalación”.
A continuación, cambie a la pestaña “Redirecciones” y añada la nueva redirección.
En primer lugar, debe marcar la casilla “Regex” situada en la esquina del primer campo.
A continuación, vaya al campo “URL de origen” y añada https://example.com/wordpress/.* Seguidamente, vaya al campo “URL de destino” y añada https://example.com/$1.
No olvide sustituir “ejemplo.com” por su propio nombre de dominio. A continuación, asegúrese de hacer clic en el botón “Añadir redirección” para guardar los cambios, y ya está.
Otra herramienta que puede utilizar para redirigir entradas y páginas es All in One SEO (AIOSEO). Te mostramos cómo redirigir a los visitantes que utilizan URL antiguas que contienen /wordpress/ a la nueva ubicación de tu sitio en nuestra guía para principiantes sobre cómo realizar redireccionamientos completos de sitios en WordPress.
Además, puede activar el seguimiento de errores 404 para detectar enlaces rotos y no perder posiciones en el ranking de palabras clave.
A partir de ahora, todos los usuarios que intenten acceder a su sitio web con /wordpress/ en la URL serán redirigidos automáticamente a las entradas correctas con su nueva URL raíz.

Brenda says
Thank you so much for this tutorial! So helpful.
I followed step #2 and all the pages on my site work now without the /wordpress in the URL, EXCEPT for the homepage. I updated the Site URL in Settings > General, but for some reason the homepage still redirects from mysite.com to mysite.com/wordpress.
Any idea why this might be happening? Thanks in advance!
WPBeginner Support says
From the sound of the issue, we would recommend checking your index.php and htaccess are both in the correct folder for a likely reason.

Brenda says

Lilly Walker says
I followed Method 1: Change WordPress Site Address
changed the site address with out /mywpfolder
and downloaded the ht.access and the index file – (they dont match your eg but just added the /mywpfolder etc
and uploaded the htaccess and the index files back to the root directory
BUT
the correct front page came up and then clicked on a link it came up but clicked on a link then and it 404’d.
my guess is that some pages have urls manually put in but how do I search and replace these?
Alice K says
Hi!
First, thank you very much!
I followed the second method, and now accessing the admin page works without adding “/wordpress” in the URL.
But when I try to access my website I still have to add “/wordpress” to the URL?!
Can anyone help? Where have I gone wrong?
WPBeginner Support says
The site is likely active in the old location, you should should still be able to see your login if you go to yourdomain/wp-login.php

sginader says
Thank you! I’m a WP novice so your step by step instructions was perfect. I do have a question – I followed Method 1 – does the redirect add to the site loading time? I ask because my site takes very long to load. Thank you!
WPBeginner Support says
While it adds a small amount to the loading time, it shouldn’t add enough to be noticeable. If this increase in load time was recent then you may want to check with your host to ensure there isn’t something conflicting with the redirect you set up.

Thank you so much! The guide I was reading didn’t mention the .htaccess part. This guide fixed the error on my site. Great work!
Bart says
Hi!
Great tutorial, and my URL now redirects (woohoo!)
However when I go the settings tab and change the site title to the one without /wordpress, the site works fine except for the home page, which gives an error.
What am I missing here…?
TROP ICSU says
Hi there!
I have my site hosted on my server. WordPress dir is located in /home/myuser/.
I tried to follow your steps by copying the updated index.php and .htaccess into same dir level where wordpress dir is. But no success.
Can you pl guide? Thank you.
Rachel says
If I have a wordpress instance in a subdirectory and I just want to delete it and not move it, can I just delete the folder, or do I need to go through some kind of un-install procedure so it is removed from the database as well?
WPBeginner Support says
Hi Rachel,
Yes you can delete it. However, we will still recommend to download it as a backup before deleting it.

Hey, so i had a go at this, and for some reason i am now faced with an HTTP 500 error.
Not sure where i went wrong, but i don’t seem to be able to get it back to normal.
Any ideas would be much appreciated.
I have tried resetting the index.php back to default as well as the .htacess file with no avail.
To make matters more difficult i get the same HTTP 500 message when trying to login to the wordpress admin as well.
Clarisse says
Hi Michael,
My folder is called “/wp” instead of “/wordpress”, so probably yours too!
That might be the problem…
Louise says
I had the same problem, and my folder was called wp. I just went back to the index.html file and changed it from wordpress to wp and problem solved! Such a helpful article, this was hanging over my head for months and so glad to have it fixed!
Gareth Botha says
Hi Syed, many thanks for all these, I have been postponing my site for over a year now as it was simply too intimidating. I had however made the fault of installing wordpress to the subdomain /wp and set the entire site up. Just sorted it out with you tut above. I have however come across a new problem, my home/landing page no longer loads my blog posts. How do I resolved this? I also get a redirect error as well.
WPBeginner Support says
Hi Gareth,
Good luck with your new website. Wish we could be more helpful, but it is up to the theme and your website settings. Please see our WordPress troubleshooting guide to figure out whats causing it.

Yan Xun says
Hi, I followed these steps and my website is working fine. Only issue is now I can’t seem to load my theme’s UX Builder for my site.
does this method cause any issue if I am using a theme UX builder?
WPBeginner Support says
Hi Yan Xun,
Here is what you can try. First create a backup of your website. After that Uninstall the UX builder by visiting the plugins page, now install and activate it again.
If it comes packaged with your theme, then again create a backup of your website. After that you need to download a fresh copy of your theme. Next, temporarily switch your WordPress site to a default WordPress theme like TwentySeventeen. Delete your old theme and then install it from the zip file you downloaded earlier.

Done that, and ‘/wordpress’ from addressbar is gone, but Google still lists it with it in the search. For example:

You will need to redirect those users. See our guide on how to setup redirects in WordPress.

Thanks for your helpful website. I downloaded .htaccess and index.php. My index php says index.php4 The line on it says this: .htaccess disapears when I download it to the desktop. In ftp, they are located in the same folder as the wordpress1 folder is located. It appears to be the root directory. The site has the url with wordpress1 at the end of it. I’m not sure what to do, and don’t want to crash the site!
Thanks,

Lee Graham says
Can I ask why you download .htaccess only to upload it again?, there is no mention of edting htaccess so why download in the first place ?
Brandi says
I believe he’s asking us to download the one from the /wordpress/ subdirectory and then upload it to the / root (which is up one level). I hope that helps

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
I spent hours working on it (failure) and then found your site + explanation.
SUPERB!
Filip Kevely says
1. I have moved my example.com WP installation into subfolder (let’s call it “secret-sub”).
2. Typing example.com/wp-login.php automatically re-directs me to example.com/secret-sub/wp-login.php :((
((Note: Visiting no other part of my web page shows this subfolder name as part of URL address; visitors see only example.com everywhere.))
Is this normal behaviour?
And if so – what’s actually the point of having your WP installation in “secret” subfolder – when basic /wp-login.php and /wp-admin brute attack re-directs to URL showing the “secret subfolder” name??
Any clear explanation will be very much appreciated. Thx.
WPBeginner Support says
Hi Filip Kevely,
When you install another WordPress instance in a sub-folder it creates a conflict for WordPress permalinks. To fix that you need to add this code to your sub-folder site’s .htaccess file:
# BEGIN WordPress <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase /secret-sub/ RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /secret-sub/index.php [L] </IfModule> # END WordPress1-click Use in WordPress
Don’t forget to replace secret-sub with the actual subfolder name.

Hi,
have you checked if you REALLY have a “yourdomain/wordpress” directory?
Or a “yourdomain/wp” directory!
Because if you do you have to change the index.php editing accordingly ; )
Hope that helps,, it worked for me ; )

Tobi says
Hi, great article, the first one I found which explains this topic in a good matter.
I have a similar problem, but a little bit more tricky. I do not know how it happened, but certainly I have done something strange at the WP installation. If I check my homepage it is actually in another extra worpress folder, that means I have WP in another WP folder, so my homepage looks like this: “www.example.com/wordpress/wordpress”. in the filemanager in the frp client i can see in the public_html two folders of wordpress. I did not move yet the wordpress folder with the content one level up and actually eliminate the other folder, because I am worried that I will mass it up.
Has anybody have an idea what would be the best solution? So I actually get the homepage opened under: “www.example.com” and not “www.example.com/wordpress/wordpress”?
thanks for any good hint/solution.

I see that several have the same problem as me, but I can not see any response to the issue.
That is that everything seems to work fine except for:
the home-page which is still directing to site.com/wordpress and therefore shows a 404 page.
I did try to delete the htaccess file from the root directory and update the url-structure. it created a new htaccess file but the problem still is the same..
Would really appreciate your response to this!
