Hi Dre,
You will need to modify your .htaccess file in the root directory
(public_html) so the apache server mod_rewrite will point to the
subdirectory.
Check out this article with some info on how to do it;

irectory.php

Here is a copy of my .htaccess redirect from a bluehost server;

Hope it works for you :)

# Use PHP5 as default
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .php
# Bluehost.com
# .htaccess main domain to subfolder redirect
# Copy and paste the following code into the .htaccess file
# in the public_html folder of your hosting account
# make the changes to the file according to the instructions.


# Do not change this line.

RewriteEngine on


# Change yourdomain.com to be your main domain.

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?covenanttek.com$


# Change 'subfolder' to be the folder you will use for your main domain.

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/covenanttek/

# Don't change this line.

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

# Change 'subfolder' to be the folder you will use for your main domain.

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /covenanttek/$1

# Change yourdomain.com to be your main domain again.
# Change 'subfolder' to be the folder you will use for your main domain
# followed by / then the main file for your site, index.php, index.html,
etc.

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?covenanttek.com$
RewriteRule ^(/)?$ covenanttek/index.php [L] 

# This next line of code will prevent the contents of a directory being
# shown if there is no index.html file in the directory

Options -Indexes

First of all, I know this isn't Joomla related but please work with me . I
am working with a firm in BK that had me move their entire site from a
dedicated server from a company to a shared on godaddy. I built a Joomla
site for them and created a subdomain for the store. All of the elements are
there but I don't know how to get the PHP configured to use it on the new
(sub)domain. Any help is appreciated or if you know someone who is great at
PHP, please send them my way. 

Thanks!

Dre
