LisaC Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 I know this has been asked and I found this reply: If you do decide to change the name of the folder you will also have to change the name in 'includes/configure.php' to reflect the changes you made to the download folder. Am just not sure where abouts in this file I would change the info. Last time I tried this I couldn't access my store any more and had to re install so I am checking to be sure this time. Other that that file and renaming teh folder, is there anything else I need to change? Thank you so much for the replies and so sorry to repeat the question Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pyramids Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 some guide lines for when you are ready to update the config file: 1: download a fresh copy from the server of your includes/configure.php - do not used the copy from the original install. 2: make a copy of this file and call it something like includes/configure_original_settings.php, then save it on your computer 3: Make sure you open and edit the includes/configure.php file in an editor like notepad or any editor that does not add any hidden codes 4: You will edit this line: define('DIR_FS_DOWNLOAD', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'download/'); I suggest that you change it by adding numbers to it, so you will know what it is. Like this define('DIR_FS_DOWNLOAD', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'download9572/'); 5: Before you upload the edited includes/configure.php file, make sure you know how to change the permissions if needed 6: Don't forget to change the name of the download folder on the server itself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
