    Hi WordPress,
    When registering my domain: parkerruiz.com with godaddy for wordpress hosting I was asked for an optional file location (parkerruiz.com/”filelocation”) and because of reading on a forum that the admin login would be “mydomain.com/wp-admin” I thought that meant i had to make the file location “parkerruiz.com/wp/admin” (rookie mistake). After finishing that up i realized what i did. “parkerruiz.com/wp/admin” had become the “location” for my home page, and “parkerruiz.com/wp/admin/wp-admin” was the admin login. So i went to my domain host and changed the file location so that it is now “parkerruiz.com”. However NOW the issue is that WordPress is still looking for “parkerruiz.com/wp/admin” and I get a 404 page when i try to go to the admin. PLEASE change the primary blog on my account to “parkerruiz.com” instead of “parkerruiz.com/wp/admin”.
