Hi,
I have put XOOPS in a subdirectory, not to lose my original website. Now I want it to be my main directory, I wonder if I should go through different configs or redirect to my XOOPS directory. I know the latter is possible in a html header or through PHP. But I do not know how. Can anybody give me a suggestion?
tia, Benny

Re: Re-Direct(?)

To move XOOPS from subdirectory to root, you just need to move the files and then adjust the physical path and URL in the mainfile.php to no longer include the subdirectory.

Since everything is in the database apart from the basic settings, which are set in mainfile.php, that should be all

Ok, I will gamble this works.

By the way, I did teaching - not my skill either

Thanks,
my website manager had to help a little but it seems to work fine now.

One thing I do not understand: Installing XOOPS the first time, in a separate directory, was so easy. Moving it was no option and after re-installing I got all kind of security warnings. Most of them have to do with the root dir. of my website. I do not need the info anymore but am still curious.
