 * I’m currently trying to install wordpress 2.7 (the theme i’m using is most stable
   in that version) and I’m having to install it manually, which I haven’t done 
   before.
 * I followed all of the steps and once I go to install wordpress through my web
   browser it installs onto mywebsite.com/admin/ but I just want to install it to
   mywebsite.com/
 * I’m not sure what the problem is. When I uploaded the wordpress files via FTP
   they are in the main directory so I’m not sure where the /admin is coming from.
 * I’m a nooby when it comes to this stuff so hopefully one of you guys/girls can
   help.
 * Thanks a lot in advance, I appreciate your time.

 * You should think about installing the latest version of WordPress. I understand
   that you do that for a theme, but there is a chance that you’ll experience problems
   when installing certain recent plugins. Can’t you find another theme?
