Demo Directory...back to root of server.

[decay]

Hi, we have had our site within a 'demo' directory ie: http://www.yoursite.co.uk/demo/ for some time now whilst it was constructed. Now it is almost complete, I want to move the site back out of this directory and onto the normal root of the server.

You sent my instructions for how to move the site 'into' the demo folder, so I assumed that it would be exactly the 'reverse' to get it back out of the folder? However, this does not seem to have worked?

-----------------------------------------------
Instructions given were:
-----------------------------------------------
1. Create the subdirectory, for example, /demo
2. Move the system into the created subdirectory.
3. Rename the index_iauto.php file to index.php.
4. Add /demo to the URL in the following line in the config-site.php file in the root directory:
 
define ('SITE_URL', http://www.yoursite.co.uk/demo/');
 
 and the config-site.php in the /admin directory:

define ('SITE_URL', 'http://www.yoursite.co.uk/admin/demo/');

------------------------------------------------------------
END
------------------------------------------------------------

The site itself works, but the "static pages" I have created fail as does the admin system itself, which I can log into but not actually do anything with once there as all the menu links, fail.

I have amended the above files back to how they were before the 'demo' status and looked through all the code on the site and all the database itself, well those fields I can see, but cannot find any remaining 'demo' entries?

Can you please offer some advice as I can't go LIVE with it until it's fixed. 

Thanks.

Dave.

Dear Dave,

You had an error in the .htaccess file, that is why the relocation from www.yoursite.co.uk/demo/ to www.yoursite.co.uk did not work, and your back-end was not functioning. We fixed that, now it works fine.

You "Dealers" page did not work because you had and you still have the "dealers" folder in the root of your site. You need to rename either the "Dealers" page, or the "dealers" folder.


Sincerely,

Lena.
