cromata Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 I have the need to change my store location, for example from folder A to folder BDoes anyone know if that can cause any security, functionality or any type of problems?I see that if i go to Admin / Preferences i can specify the PS Directory i'm guessing that would be the first step before making the change.RegardsMario Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeenaInc Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 Mario,You are correct that changing the directory in the admin is step one. Step Two is to move the files to the new folder, via FTP. I have made this move before and had no problems...of course that is no guarantee because everyday a new problem arises with Prestashop.... or any open source store for that matter.GOOD LUCK!Meena, Inc.

dahechler Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 Note: This is a LIVE shop!I've got the same problem. I installed using PS directory of "prestashop" and now I just want to call it "store".I tried moving everything mentioned above and it did not work. I can't remember the exact problem and I don't want to try it again until I know for sure it's going to work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RapidFire Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 I was wondering the same thing... right now my website store is mywebsite.com/prestashop and I was hoping to be able to move it to the root directory and get rid of the /prestashop/ in the URL.

dropbop Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 I am trying this right now on a friends prestashop. I am moving it from public_html/store to public_html/First thing I did was change the public_html/store/config/setting.inc.php file as below:Find on line 3 define('__PS_BASE_URI__', '/store/'); and change to define('__PS_BASE_URI__', '/'); that changes the base url of you prestashop install. So instead of it sending all links to www.mysite.com/store/ it now sends them to www.mysite.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
