Hi there, I am developing my cms locally with xampp and therefore all the links are of course like
http://localhost/xyz How can I change all these links to
http://my url/xyz? to make it run on the server?
Regards, Stefan

Please look to config.php - there are IMHO all needed preferences available
.

Yeah. Just change all of the urls in config.php to the new ip/hostname. Then go into the admin and click the Clear Cache button in Site Admin->Global Settings.

Thanks for your help. I had a look into the config.php but didn't want to wish that it would be so easy. Greetings, Stefan

Whenever you set a link do not use a full "quote" like href="
http://www.somsite.com/images/img.jpg" but rather relative links like href="./images/img.jpg". This way you can move your content to different sites with a different host name.
