about done with prestashop

[BrandiB]

yes, a little irritated!! Not only is my theme no where to be found and have been trying for 2 days, I go to my site and it is spunhoney.net/prestashop-1/

tried to rename the file so it would show up as spunhoney.net it gives my the 404 page.

Im sure it's something I am doing wrong but everything has been a huge challenge since I started 3 weeks ago with prestashop.

in three weeks nothing has gotten me to the point of being able to start designing my shop.

I dont want people to have to type in spunhoney.net/prestashop-1 to get to my site. It should be spunhoney.net and go to my site.

can anyone tell me how to fix this. Again I know it something I am doing wrong but I have followed all the directions in everything from downloading prestashop, putting on my server......took 4 times to finally get the installation completed. Now I have followed the directions on buying a new theme....what little directions I could find, and I still dont have a theme I paid for.

now.....the url.

uggggg.......feeling pretty discouraged at this point.

Thanks for any help I can get!!

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP!! sorry for the frustration!!!! I really appreciate the people on here who help!!!!!!!!!

hmmm.....when I open cyberduck (ftp) the only file in it is prestashop-1.
I tried to create another folder, didnt work
I put all the files on local and root and deleted the empty file prestashop-1, didnt work. and when I went to sign into my back office....wont let me sign in.
I typed in spunhoney.net
and it automaticallly put's spunhoney.net/prestashop-1
it wont allow me to just use spunhoney.net
So I had to create a new folder called prestashop-1 again and put everything back in it just to use my back office.
I SO CONFUSED!!!
:gulp:


I know I'm probly not understanding exactly what to do......very sorry!!!

thank you so very much, if you can give me a step by step ( I know that's a total pain!! )

Hello use this redirect so takes you directly to the website

Create an index.php file, and enter into this code

<?
header( "HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently" );
header( "Location: http://www.spunhoney.net/prestashop-1{$_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']}");
?>

Hi Brandi

If you copy all the files to the root folder again, but then edit the settings.inc.php file (in the config folder): there will be a line something like:


define('__PS_BASE_URI__', '/prestashop-1');



Change it to:

define('__PS_BASE_URI__', '/');



That will stop it looking for http://www.spunhoney.net/prestashop-1

Thank you Seank, sinityapparel, and Lika. I ended up reinstalling prestashop. I took everything out of the folder and it worked. thank you both very much for your help I was about to pull my hair out!!

I followed some instructions to get my theme put into my shop, but no luck on that still. WheN I download it, it said
"zip file seems to be broken"

Still trying to figure this one out.

Thank you again for helping me before I exploded!! hahah
