  I need to connect my WordPress blog to my user account so that I can update it. I am updating the website for the NYS Military Museum, right now it is being hosted at http://www.friendsofthenysmilitarymuseum.com and that is what we will point it to when we are finished. The blog is being filed under http://www.saratogafms.com/militarymuseum. It is not in the root directory so that is why I am confused as to how I am supposed to link my account to it. When WordPress asks you to register a blog, they only give you an option of registering full domain names. How can I map it to my WordPress blog if it’s at http://www.saratogafms.com/militarymuseum.com, not in the root directory?

  EDIT: Ok, I figured out how to get it to take a subdomain. But it says “Do you own this domain and want to map it for $12?” NO, my blog is already being hosted by GoDaddy, and it’s already up and running. I don’t want to pay $12. What I want to do is figure out how to get into my blog and start blogging!!!!!!! I have this username and password for wordpress, how do I connect it to my blog??????

  If your blog is hosted by GoDaddy you are in teh wrong forum and need to be at WordPress.ORG instead. It’s an entirely different kind of WordPress.
