Should I move my site from a temporary subdirectory?
Hello.
There is a site, while there is a stub on the main page, and the wordpress cms itself is in a subdirectory.
Question: is it worth (and is it necessary at all) to transfer the site itself to the directory above (and will there be problems with the database during the transfer) or just put a redirect in index.html, on the main cms page?

In this context (judging by the level of preparation) - there will be problems during the transfer.
I copy the same instructions for everyone who asks the same thing - "how to solve WordPress problems after a manual transfer":
In the modern world, WordPress does this:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/duplicator/ - put a plugin.
We go into it, click "Create package". Next, next, next.
We get installer.php and archive. Upload them to a new hosting (domain, folder - it doesn't matter). Run site.com/installer.php. Enter a new username and password for the database.
Next, next, next.
At the end, follow the instructions on the screen - log in to the vp, resave the permalinks. Delete the installer files and the archive.
Everything. Everything has been moved. No problems with paths, etc.
