Is there a way to install Wordpress in the root of a domain using EasyApps? The wizard forces me to specify a subdirectory, and unlike Fantatisco I can't leave it blank.

While I realize it doesn't specifically answer your question, you might want to consider installing Wordpress manually. It's incredibly easy - took me maybe 10 minutes the first time, now it takes me about 2 minutes.

There is no way to do this with EasyApps.

Like tjthayer says, it is quite easy to install manually, if you want to do this. Alternatively, you could setup some .htaccess redirect rules to automatically redirect requests to the WordPress installation.
