Trying to use a pre-existing subdirectory install

[GWCowan]

I’m trying to redirect my wordpress website from http://groundfishforum.org/GFFWordPress/wordpress to http://groundfishforum.org. I changed my Site Address (url) settings in the General Settings from http://groundfishforum.org/GFFWordPress/wordpress to http://groundfishforum.org (left the WordPress address (url) as is). I copied my .htaccess and index.php file from my GFFWordPress/wordpress directory to /groundfishforum.org/public/, my root directory and then changed the require('./wp-blog-header.php'); in the index.php file that I moved into my root directory to require('./GFFWordPress/wordpress/wp-blog-header.php'); but I’m still getting the old website when I access http://www.groundfishforum.org. I have searched high and low for a remedy but haven’t found it. My permalinks are set to custom structure (/%postname%) so I didn't change anything there. I appreciate any and all help with this. Until then, will be doing this .
