  I have 2 websites, 1 is for my photography which is http://photography.modernrevolutions.net and then my main domain which i dont use that often. modernrevolutions.net. My dilemma is that I would like to make my photography website my domain name.
  I thought I could just change the .index since i would still like to keep my other site in some sort of archive. Should I just move all the wordpress folders? Or would that mess something up? Sorry if this isn’t clear :/

  pay no attention to @americanswancoupons they are a spammer

  The site you are asking about does not seem to be hosted on WordPress.COM so you need to make friends over at WordPress.ORG the keepers of the software you are using.

  This site is for support of sites hosted on WordPress.COM. You should address your questions to WordPress.ORG the keepers of the software you are using: http://wordpress.org/support/

  The forum at WordPress.ORG is not connected to WordPress.COM so you will need to open an account at .ORG if you do not already have one. You may use the same email at WordPress.ORG as you do at WordPress.COM.

  For more on the difference: http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  If you are asking for help with a WordPress.COM site then we need a link to that site to give you accurate help.

  @americanswancoupons
  We do not provide WordPress.ORG support here at all.

  @modernrevolutions
  Neither of those sites are hosted by WordPress.COM and those are the only sites we provide support for here.

  WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support forums. Read the differences here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, so you can post to the support forums there.

  WordPress.org support docs are at https://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page
