I am assuming you have a homepage? Such as index.html or default.html..etc? If so you can either point your browser to your homepage or you can make it so your domain or subdomain automatically redirects to that page.

I do have the home page Index.html. It shows all the files i have uploaded to my site when you visit my site. How do i make it show my site entirely not just all the files i uploaded

Well you first need a file that you can call your home or homepage. Most sites this is names index,default,home..etc.

Your could be different but you should have a homepage?

You may just need to rename that file so that Index is spelled with a lower case I instead. Beyond that, your browser should point to it automatically.

I did. I did everything i thought it could be. ive spent over 24 hours on this and about to cancel and give up haha. Mybe if someone could give me a pic of what there shit looks like when its published to the website it might help. I have made sure that if says index or default. the furthest i ever get is to whre it shows all of my files on the website but not the home page itself.
