    My host initially had my wordpress in a subfolder (/front/) and I didnt want it there. Last night he finally moved it to the root. However now that it is in the room, it still redirects to the sub of /front/
    If I go to root/wp-admin and login… it redirects me to /front/wp-admin/
    When you visit my site at the root you see my content but I lose all admin abilities at that side.. I cannot use the customizer or edit posts there..
    its a mess and I dont know what happened. is there a setting in WordPress that may not have been changed? or is my host using a redirect? I checked .htaccess and I dont see a redirect there.. so I dont know what more to do other than wait for my host but that may be hours from now and Id rather fix sooner than later. Please help me.

    I changed the settings in my admin panel under Settings>General and removed the /front/ from both URLS. Now I cn get to the proper admin area in my root BUT when I click on my link to go to my admin… for some reason this happens

    https://fishinpedia.com/wp-login.php?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Ffishinpedia.com%2Fwp-admin%2F&reauth=1

    The link I am clicking is https://fishinpedia.com/wp-admin/ (it’s on a local html document that I keep all my regularly used urls on for quick access)

    I cant figure out why the redirect is being added. It never did this until my host moved my WordPress from the subfolder to the root (as I wanted)

    if I remove all after the ? mark I can then login. I need to figure out why ?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Ffishinpedia.com%2Fwp-admin%2F&reauth=1 is being added to the url
