Cannot move wordpress htaccess and index.php to root directory…no header image

Hi guys,
I follow the wordpress codex on moving wordpress to its own directory…I am keeping core file in subdirectory where they were installed and moving index.php and htaccess to root.

steps i follow
1. in wordpress dashboard i change site address url from https://mydomain.com/wordpress to https://mydomain.com
2. copy .htaccess and index.php from subdirectory to root directory
3. edit index.php so that
require( dirname( __FILE__ ) . ‘/wp-blog-header.php’ );

reads

require( dirname( __FILE__ ) . ‘/wordpress/wp-blog-header.php’ );

As soon as i do this, the avada header dissapears and/or the logo wont display.

I have tried reassigning images, reuploading images, checking image urls (they appear to be correct), running velvet blues url updater…nothing is working.

if i revert back to how it was before, everything works.

Note i have SSL cert on site.

Any ideas on what is wrong?
