    Unless you have access to the vhost it is better to put the wordpress content in the home directory (/srv/www/) but also you can look into url masking

    When you install into a folder you leave nothing at the root level. So there is no point in doing that unless you want to make WordPress an extension (i.e. Just an add on blog). If you want your WordPress installation to be your Website I would suggest this simple trick.

    Just move everything in your folder to the root level. In cPanel you can basically drag and drop. Then go back to your config.php and wpsettings.php files have the correct path. You may not have to change anything in config.php

    Many hosts will actually do this for you if you send a support ticket and ask them.

    Or you could always reinstall everything.
