Move IP.S to another directory

Featured Replies

Posted

Hey,

I'd like to move my IP.S 4.1 from /IPS to / - how can I do that? Which files / DB entry needed to be edited to force the new URL?

Move all files to the root and then changet conf_global.php to reflect your new URL ;)

Thanks. What's about Sitemaps and the friendly URL configuration?

Okay, I've just moved it and changed the URL in the config file and uploaded this again. The system works great in the frontend, but the ACP still redirects to /IPS/admin, but there is no htaccess or rewrite rules for that. Is there something like a cache in the filesystem that needs to be cleared to get suite running again.

EDIT: brings me 500er error in the admin interface lol

Check your constants.php file for your custom admin directory

There is no custom admin directory, cause I didn't touched this. It's still /amin. I found the problem: It was the .htaccess file in the root folder which contains redirection URLs for /IPS for the friendly URLs. Deleted it - how can I disable the friendly URLs setting in the database?

Oh, sorry. You would just need to replace "/IPS" with "/" in your .htaccess

Yeah, but it's already deleted. This is my problem..

Shouldn't need to go into the database, should be able to go into your ACP and remove the rewrite setting or download a new .htaccess
