Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
CruiseHabit Posted December 7, 2019 Posted December 7, 2019 I recently purchased a license and did a quick install to make sure all was well. I need to change the URL though (as the current path is long and not ideal). I thought I might just uninstall and re-install, but I made the mistake of not setting a table prefix during the install, so now I have to sort through all the tables to figure out which are for Invision, drop them, then remove the files, and reinstall to a new path. On one hand, I'd like to easily just change the URL, but it'd probably be best to reinstall with prefixes for better long-term sustainability and maintenance. Is there a full list of default tables somewhere?
Sonya* Posted December 7, 2019 Posted December 7, 2019 It depends in the apps you have purchased. Install IPS with prefix, this way you get the full list if tables. Then delete the tables having exactly same name but without prefix 😉
CruiseHabit Posted December 7, 2019 Author Posted December 7, 2019 No apps yet. I think I've isolated the list, but installing and finding the dups (without the prefix) may be 'more fool-proof'. I'm quite the fool though, so we'll see. Great quote in your sig btw.

Thanks 😉 This is a reminder for myself, as I mostly give try-and-error a chance before lookings into docs

Is there a full list of default tables somewhere? There’s no need to delete anything to change the URL, this can be done by editing your conf_global.php
