Oscommerce as top directory

[justmake]

I have noticed quite a few oscommerce sites dont have a /catalogue or /shop or whatever they installed oscommerce under.

So i asked my ISP to make it so the top directory of my site is my oscommerce folder, so i didnt have to have a redirect from www.justmakecomputers.com.au to www.justmakecomputers.com.au/oscommerce.

So he did it for me, but it broke all my links (so he changed it back).

Is there any way to have oscommerce as your top directory without breaking all your links, coz i heard that having a redirect can effect being seen by search engines.

You need to edit your two configure.php files

includes/configure.php

admin/includes/configure.php

 

Look at your path defines and remove all the /catalog entries out of them.

How should this line look after i edit it?

 

define('HTTPS_COOKIE_PATH', '/oscommerce/');

Just remove the oscommerce

 

define('HTTPS_COOKIE_PATH', '/');

 

Basically anywhere you see

 

/oscommerce/

 

change to

 

/
