  Hi there,

  Looks like you’re in the wrong forum. It appears that you’re referring to the self-hosted version of WordPress and you need to seek help at the WordPress.org forums:

  https://wordpress.org/support/

  These forums are for WordPress.com hosted sites only. If you want to know more about the differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org you can read this document:

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  Thanks Fstat for the reply! Does wordpress.com business plan supports the above? I wanted to have my wordpress only on a subdirectory of a domain. http://www.example.com/blog

  Hi vivianang67551753,

  I’m afraid not, you would need to use self hosted WordPress.org software to achieve this — we only support the use of subdomains but not the ability to create a subdirectory.
