airuma Posted February 5, 2004 Author Share Posted February 5, 2004 I have searched (thanks for not being helpful), but I can't make sense of it. Some posts say to move the catalog to the root folder - but what files? Some posts say to edit configure.php. Some posts say to redirect the file. WHAT SHOULD I DO???

1quicksi Posted February 5, 2004 Share Posted February 5, 2004 300+ posts 99% of them deal with users not searching or really trying. You can poke around and see most of my posts are in fact helpful. When a post such as yours has so many topics I can not do the search for you as I get pages and pages instead of being able to point you to a single thread that was buried somplace. But once again I found a thread that will make this is about as simple as it is going to get <_< http://www.oscommerce.com/forums/index.php?sho...=0entry299451 Your welcome :P knowledge base | Contributions | Search Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airuma Posted February 5, 2004 Author Share Posted February 5, 2004 I read that post. They change subject in the middle of it to "google search". Anyway, what it doesn't tell me is what files I have to add where. Do I just put everything on root instead of /catalog? Even the adm files? I just don't want to mess it up. I wasn't asking you (or anyone) to do a search for me, I am capable of searching, thank you. But I am really new to this whole OSC thing, and not much of what makes sense to other posters make sense to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1quicksi Posted February 5, 2004 Share Posted February 5, 2004 No problem at all as I will reply over and over till you are comfortable with doing the move :) And yes I find it very rude when someone starts asking other questions within someone elses thread as things get off topic and make searches that more difficult. The best explanation I can give is to move all the files in catalog/ down 1 level to the root. Then re-run the install program. Make sure you uncheck the populate database option during the reconfiguration. So your folders will look something like this: html/ html/includes html/admin/ ...etc... Then just fill out the required information. While I like the idea of what you and others want to do I personaly like to keep things within a structure. I.E. Store is in a store folder, chat in a chat folder, misc stuff in a misc folder, etc This just makes it easier when things are sorted. I just use a simple intro page as my index file that auto refreshes to the store in x amount of seconds. Hope this clarifies things for you... knowledge base | Contributions | Search Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airuma Posted February 5, 2004 Author Share Posted February 5, 2004 Thank you. I'll try and let you know if I have any problems. I thought of just making a frontpage to the store, but I found that pointless since all I use the site for is the catalog itself.

1quicksi Posted February 5, 2004 Share Posted February 5, 2004 We do to just use a pretty Flash image and sound for an intro. Feel free to PM me if I loose this thread. knowledge base | Contributions | Search Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
