williambesson Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Hello I have tried to move a copy of an existing prestashop to another server in order to have a development server. I have followed various tutorials. The initial site is here: http://www.hdvideoshop.com/ I have tried to move it to: http://www.avocat-presence.com/ As you can see the theme is here, the transfer seems to be fine on surface but when you click a link, you get an error message or in some cases it links back to the old site. I have changed my URL in the database PS_Configuration. What am I missing? Thanks a ton for your time. Guillaume Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Patron Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 try this post your ps version..that is always helpful make sure you have mod_rewrite on new server regenerate your .htaccess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
williambesson Posted January 30, 2013 Author Share Posted January 30, 2013 Thank you so much for your fast reply elpatron. It looks like .htaccess hadn't been transfered. That solved the problem for all my categories and products. They are showing now. Yet a few links like contact us/our shop and "home" still links to the old shop. Last but not least I can't seem to be able to get to the back office. Any ideas? Thanks again.

El Patron Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 if you have some links pointing back to your old site, then it's probably because they are hard coded.....simply find the code that is generating the link, and make sure that it's ps compliant (i.e. not hard coded) or just change the link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
