This is a short answer, but...

move the whole shebang out of whatever directory it's currently in (and which probably goes /something/catalog), up to your root directory, then open up includes/configure.php and make sure the following lines are configured correctly (which will probably mean changing everywhere that it says /something/catalog to just /.

 

define('HTTP_SERVER', ''); // eg, http://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

define('HTTPS_SERVER', ''); // eg, https://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

define('ENABLE_SSL', false); // secure webserver for checkout procedure?

define('HTTP_COOKIE_DOMAIN', '');

define('HTTPS_COOKIE_DOMAIN', '');

define('HTTP_COOKIE_PATH', '');

define('HTTPS_COOKIE_PATH', '');

define('DIR_WS_HTTP_CATALOG', '');

define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '');

Or just use the following in index.html as a refresh to your catalog.

 

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="1;URL=/catalog">

when you say move everything out to the root directory

do i just move all the folders to root

or everything out of the folders into root?
