Hi, my site is currently at a test server, (Ex.http://tempserver/folder/index.php) my question is, how do I automatically change this address when I transfer it to the actual server? (Ex.http://actualserver/folder/index.php) -- {X_SITEURL} sometimes just don't work.

thanks, but currently I hardcode some graphics and links from my test server, (I manually typehttp://testserver/folder/index.php to refer to the homepage) -- but of course when i transfer my site to the actual site, these links would not work anymore. In Custom Block they say I should use {X_SITEURL} but this doesn't work in all modules.

I know I'm doing something wrong, please offer suggestions.

thanks to all!

heh, guess i shoulda paid closer attn to your question


for php code, use this predefined language statement:
XOOPS_URL
example: $ex = XOOPS_URL."/modules/donations/";

for smarty templates, use this:
<{$xoops_url}>
example: <link href="<{$xoops_url}>/favicon.ico" rel="SHORTCUT ICON" />
