Move CMSMS from folder to root

Post by benjiman »

Hello!

I developed a CMSMS site which goes live in a couple of days. (version 0.13)
The CMSMS site sits in a folder called "cms" (like domain.com/cms)
When I go live I want to move my CMS to the root folder (so when you type the domainname you get the CMS site)
I' can't point the browser to the domain.com/cms folder (shared hosting). So I have to move the CMS.

??? Can someone explain me how to do this (step by step)? I would be very grateful!

thnx

I'll try the wiki

I only found something bout copying the cms to another server.
But I just have to move it to another folder. Database stays the same.

Ok  I did it on intuition :D

1) removed my cache (admin prefs)
2) I moved all my folders & files to the root
3) I edited the URLs in my Config.php
4) it worked!

Fantastic!!!
