@lernerconsult, I don't know why you feel the need to insult me. That's completely unnecessary.
- "They probably answered a different question than you asked them.” - No need to be an ass. I didn’t ask OpenShift.com any questions
- "Need to know whether DNS gets directly to this folder” - DNS is for mapping to IPs, and yes, for the second time, the website URL root maps directly to the webdoc root
- "host does not allow wildcard aliasing” - No, I wrote “host does not allow for subdomains”. GoDaddy manages my DNS and they do allow wildcard aliasing, and that’s completely irrelevant for as I said, I can’t create subdomains on the web host.
- "Showing a list of files doesn't answer the question” - No, but "WordPress is installed in the root" did.
