I need to switch the registered URL of my currently running community from https://mydomain.com/forums to https://xyz.mydomain.com/forums (These are examples).

My current DNS record is pointing to the same host for both @ and xyz example. I need to reassign my @ record elsewhere and leave the community on the current running server. The hosts file already reflects the xyz.

Is this as easy as disabling apache so that the community appears to not exist in the client area, submit the change and then restart apache, or will I need to do something further that I am not thinking of?

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Sean

Sorry, Im a little confused here. If you need to point the @ record elsewhere, you could just do that first, then reset the URL in your client area.

Thank you. I just wanted to make sure that it was "THAT" simple.

This worked without issue after changing the base_url value to the new subdomain and reloading apache.

You may want to also rebuild your system cache in the ACP also but yes… that easy!
