Several issues after moving from subfolder to root in the back and front of the shop

[dirdi]

Hello ,

My Prestashop version is 1.6.014

 

I am asking assistance please with a very urgent and serious problem.

 

I developed my website on a subfolder and now moved to the root of the domain.

 

I changed the urls in the DB fields and also changed in httacess the RewriteRule . - [E=REWRITEBASE:/subfolder/] to RewriteRule . - [E=REWRITEBASE:/]

 

The problems:

- In the office backend just few functions are working but no filters are working, the drop  menus are not showing and in some actions I have 500 error, for example when called to action the Advanced Setting menu.

Another problem in the back is that is never finishing to load the page, the circle arrows are moving continually and is not finishing to upload the dashboard.

 

- On the front the Home page is giving 404 error and when browsing on other menu items I have a 404 error because how the url is constructed:

www.domain.comcom/subpage

 

I think this issue maybe I could solve it from the back end if I could work properly there...

 

I really appreciate any help.

Thank you

Just open your database and find ps_shop_url table. Change the physical_url field from /<your_subfolder>/ to only /

Nothing to do anything with .htaccess, once you move your site just disable friendly url and load your website and again enable friendly url so .htaccess will be regenerated automatically

Simple.

Uau , Thank you!!! The problem was that in the physical_url field I left it totally empty, I just had to add the / and all solved out.

Good luck, bye
