Moving store

Recommended Posts

:huh: Hello all,

 

Store is progressing wonderfully ... only problem is that I now need to move it to a different directory

 

Can I just pickup and drop the catalog folder into a new folder ... from www.myspace.com/catalog to www.myspace.com/us/catalog??? I've tried this, and everything was gone ... the text was there, but nothing else (bars, images, etc.) ... do I have to change a referecne somewhere??

make a back-up of the whole site.

in admin Tools > Database > make another back-up

 

you have 2 no's configure.php:

in each of them:

put /us in front of every /***/***/***/catalog/

i.e make it: /***/***/***/us/catalog/

 

shift /catalog/ directory to /us/catalog/

exchange the old configure.php's for the new ones.

 

CHMOD the necessary directories and files.

 

check the admin for errors because of cache and sessions settings

 

safeguard yr admin directory

which one you know, than I can tell you where to find the other one.

 

they're both somewhere in the directories anyway, I suppose you have a computer with a built-in search function?

are you sure you really need to shift the shop :(

I figure the two configure.php are the ones for the admin and the one for the catalog?

 

As far as shifting the shop goes, yes ... it is a necessity ... why couldn't I be the boss, then I could make my own decision that mike life easier for me:)
