  It sounds like your site is a self-hosted wordpress.org install instead.

  Here’s a bit of info about the difference: (.com and .org These forums are for hosted wordpress.com sites so you are probably in the wrong place.)

  In that case, you may be accidentally following wordpress.com instructions for domain mapping, and it can’t be fixed here.

  We might be able to point you in the right direction with a bit more information.

  a) What exactly are you trying to do? If you’re just trying to eliminate the /wordpress/ from your url, you can reverse the changes you’ve made and follow these instructions on the wordpress.org support site instead: Giving WordPress Its Own Directory
  (You’ll be able to find any further help you need in the wordpress.org support forums.)

  b) If that’s not the case, tell us your domain registration provider, your hosting provider, and the details of what you’re trying to do?
