URL Problem – Want to remove: /wordpress

Hi,

I’ve got a problem with the url of my website. I’ve searched and tried out several methods, but none of them seem to work.

The problem is, that the URL’s got the line ‘/wordpress’ added to it: http://www.nameofwebsite.com/wordpress.
I just want it to look like this: http://www.nameofwebsite.com

The index.html file is located in the Root folder on the FTP.

I’ve tried the obvious thing, to correct the site and home URLs under General Settings. That didn’t work, it just broke every link on the website.

I’ve also tried adding these lines to the functions php file: update_option(‘siteurl’,’http://www.nameofwebsite.com’);update_option(‘home’,’http://www.nameofwebsite.com’);

Again no luck.

I’ve tried searching for other solutions, a lot of them are very difficult to follow.. I’m no wordpress expert.

So I would really appreciate it, if someone could point me in the right direction.
Thanks.
