GemRock Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 Its not good enough to just said you got errors. It would be better to say what the error msg is. Anyway, after you changed the admin folder name, did you also update any reference to admin folder in the configure.php file(s)?

Ken Since the folder name is changed from admin to other, any link i click on in admin panel will take me to mystite.com/admin/.......... and i get the 404 error "page not found. No I didn't update the reference to admin folder in configure.php,(i don't know how this is done). Now that you mentioned that there is a reference that needs to be updated, this must be the cause (i now believe). Thanks Ken, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
