I have changed the subdomain for my wordpress site that links to IPBoard, but I have been gaving difficuly trying to relink IPBoard.

I have had the license to the old site removed, and copied the 'community' folder into the public_html folder for the new sub-domain. After reading a post on the forum I then edited the base_url in the conf_global.php file to the new subdomain.

From what I have read, I need to now enter the license key in the AdminCP. However, I cannot access it from the Wordpress site and I do not know how to access it.

i would appreciate any help.

Thanks, Wayne

PS When moving the site, I used the Siteground 'move application' which did not require any changes to the database, so I do not think that is the issue.

 

You would not access the admin CP from your wordpress site. You would access it from your community location. So it would be yourSiteURL/admin

Thanks for your response Marc. I typed in mySiteURL/admin and it took me to Wordpress admin. So I typed in mySiteURL/adminCP and it says the page does not exist.

IPS ACP doesn't have adminCP just admin, and you should add your subdomain. 

example: forums.mysite.com/admin

Thanks for your response but as i said previously, mySiteURL/admin redirects to /wp-admin

Do you have a .htaccess file in the root of your site? If so, what are the contents?

Thank you for your email. The .htaccess file pointed to the old subdomain. I have changed it to the new subdomain.

I was then able to get into admin and change the License using mysite.com/community/admin

i appreciate your help.
