Move website from root to sub

If anyone is struggling to do such a thing, here’s a simple way ;

Using the WP Dashboard, make a new page “subdir” and set is as whatever you want (for me it was a blank-page for my “under construction” page”.

Then go to your theme settings and set this freshly made webpage as the main webpage & you’ll be done.

At first I thought I had to do migrating work but I didn’t have to do such a thing, it was a bit too much overthinking 🙂
