CMS Made Simple Forums

Our current website is currently under one domain (example, xxxxxxxxx.com) and we want all the formatting to stay the same but to move it to a new domain (example: yyyyyyyyy.com).

I have gone through every screen of the admin login section of CMS Made Easy and I cannot figure out where I can edit this!

You need to check config.php file in cmsms' root directory.

Depending on version of CMSMS it's there. If it's not, then you don't need them and CMSMS will try to determine the right domain itself.

Where is the root directory? I've been trying to find the config.php but don't know where it would be.

Someone else did the set up on this website about four years ago, so I'm just now accessing this. I'm just accessing things through http://www._________.com/admin/login.php Is there a different place that I should be accessing and editing?

Yes, you need to access the file system via FTP client or SSH client or Admin Panel of your web server/hosting provider.

From my experience it's not a good idea to work with the config.php from CMSMS admin. It's perfect way to lock yourself out and get website down for a while

I've tried downloading CMSMS and it won't run. I've checked out a module that looks promising but not sure how the modules are supposed to work. I also don't know how to access the file system via an FTP client. I'm just going off of what is given to me.

Sounds like you may need to read through this site...
