Feb 13, 2012 at 21:25 comment added markratledge Read what I wrote and the WP docs: "up one directory level..." That's one level above /wp-includes/. That's what works right now. If I moved wp-config.php into wp-admin or another folder, it wouldn't work.

Feb 13, 2012 at 19:02 comment added EAMann Read that same note very carefully ... it talks about moving wp-config.php to the same level as /wp-includes ... not to the level of /home below /public_html. You're moving things in the opposite direction.

Feb 13, 2012 at 18:15 comment added EAMann What do you mean "for security"? No one can read your wp-config.php file through the browser anyway ...
