Hi guys

I've had to change my domain name (hosting still the same), so I've updated mainfile.php and cleared the caches, all is ok except my meta data is still linking to the old domain. I've tried everything but can't change the meta links - can anyone help? Its driving me mad because it means the theme is not displaying.

Also when I go to admin area I just get a blank page but I'm guessing this is related to the meta problem

Hi guys, can anyone help? its driving me mad, I can't figure out why the data in <head> is still showing my old URL, if its not controlled by the mainfile.php does anyone know where it is?

Thanks

Assuming you mean the meta data that appears in the <head> sections of your pages' code (e.g. when viewing the source code via your browser), have you tried:

Admin>Preferences>Meta Tags and Footer?

Otherwise it'll be set in a module somewhere. For certain it'll be in the database rather than in mainfile.php or any other files.

Re: Changed domain but meta data showing old domain

Three places to check this...

mainfile.php, there is a place to state the name of the site...


Main preferences in the admin panel. There could be settings in the admin panel so check them all to make sure you have changed any settings that may be there.

Also check protector and see if it has any settings saved. The blank pages are likely protector seeing an attack because of the new URL and you may need to reset it.

Are you using URL Rewrite? If so you need to also look at the control files as well.

If this was just a domain change and not a host swap you may also need to check your server settings to make sure everything lines up well.

Thanks a lot guys!

I've got the site's theme displaying by going in to xoops_data and clearing the files (I'd forgotten caches are now stored in trust path rather than cache and templates_cache folders.

BUT I still can't access any admin pages. When I check the html source I can see that the <head> code is not fully downloaded (see below) and so I'm just getting empty pages for all admin pages. The weird thing is that when I use debug mode it shows no errors.

Can you tell me where in protector I need to be looking?

Thanks!!!

What did you do before it started? I assume that before everything was OK, correct?
What XOOPS version are you using? What admin theme?
