Possible to rename the admin directory?

Because my hosting provider already maps http://mydomainname/admin to a link to a set of of control panel pages, I need to use a different name for the directory that contains the admin files for CMS.

That's very simple to actually do when I add the files to the host, but are there any dependencies within the code therein which depends upon the particular location being used?

The only real places that it would show up would be in the menu plugins that point to it. If you're not going to show the admin on your menu anyway, you SHOULD be able to just change it.

If, for some reason, you do get any errors, send them on over and I'll help you through it.

This will be configurable in the next version, but it's a bit of a ways off yet.

Thank you. Yes seems to work fine

.

I ran into a problem with permissions seeming to be too liberal, but have successfully tried pretty much all the functions now - with the exception of the image manager Iframe which won't display

. Not to worry - I'll keep playing.

It certainly seems a very powerfull application pitched at the level of simplicity I was looking for. Thank you.

Excellent. Glad it working out. If you do have to change any code to get it to work, please send our way. Makes my life that much easier.

Thanks!
