Help
Okay, I'm really concentrating on switching my flash website (which is outdated and ugly) to a complete wordpress site. Here is my problem. In the past, I had a plug-in that would auto switch to a "mobile" website instead of my flash website when a person was using an ipad or mobile device. Now...I have no idea how to get all those settings changed. I am a complete idiot when it comes to wordpress. I have uploaded and installed a new Photocrati theme, but the home address is still -> http://www.cstudioprints.com/mobile/ when I want it to just be -> http://www.cstudioprints.com. Also, on the http://www.cstudioprints.com/mobile "wordpress" site, every time I add a page onto the homepage, the link just sends you to my flash website. Does this make any sense? I don't want to screw anything up, but I have no idea how to just fix this so I can get this website done today. I'm guessing it is something simple in the wordpress settings, but I'm so afraid I'll do something wrong and then all of my websites will be down. Any help or advice?!?

I'm not overly familiar with Wordpress, but I think it should work like this.
Your main site should be at http://www.cstudioprints.com . There should be a plugin for Wordpress that handles presenting your content in a mobile format without the need to maintain an additional /mobile structure. That's part of the beauty of a CMS (Content Management System), your content and how it is displayed are separate things. The "mobile" site is just your content displayed with a different theme that is tailored to mobile display. The plugin should check the user's browser type and serve up the mobile format when needed.
Here, have a google.

I did! Don't ask me what it was, because it's all a blur, I was working with my webshost and she did most of the work for me. They are awesome. My website is still a little rough, and I have a lot to work on, but I think I'm starting to get the gist of this whole wordpress thing-ma-bob.
