===Changing the blog url===
It seems likely that some Reddit bots are automatically blogging postings with the word blog in their URL. So I decided to move my blog from /blog to /article. (Note that it article is singularto save letters. ) I considered 'paper', which is shorter but not quite right. Likewise 'study', etc. Also 'journal', digest (my favorite other than article), review, bulletin, and pub (which was just too ambiguous).
To do this you have to (see https://wordpress.org/support/article/moving-wordpress/):
#Make the change in Wordpress through wp-admin (you have to do this first!)
#Move the directoryto the new name (at this point I could access www.edegan.com/article)
#Fix the aliases in apache
#Fix the permalinks
#Fix the permissions
#Create a new icon image
To fix the main alias in apache:
vi /etc/apache2/sites-available/edegan.com.conf
Change:
Alias /blog /var/www/html/blog/
RewriteRule ^/*$ %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/blog/index.php [L]
systemctl reload apache2
