I need to change the location of the admin folder because my hosting provider has a sym link to a different directory...

 

How would I go about doing this?

 

Thanks.

Move the admin folder or rename it, then edit the admin/includes/configure.php settings to reflect the changes.

I keep seeing "includes" when you tell people where to adjust files. what does that mean? I'm working right inside the admin and I see nowhere to put "includes".

You can not change it in admin.

You have to go to the actual file and edit it.

When the file location is written as admin/includes/configure.php it means that you need to open your admin folder, then the includes folder within it, then find the configue.php file.

If you're find this part complicated (pardon the pun) perhaps you should consider hiring someone to help you with the changes. Otherwise you have a steep learning curve ahead of you - not impossible, but it will take a great deal of determination. I'm not trying to put you off; stick with it & you WILL get there in the end. :wink:
