Title: (resolved) rename repository ?
Post by: Batman007 on February 22, 2013, 23:50:50

Hi,

For safety reason we should rename or change file the folder * repository * but the problem we have a blank page.
I read this topic https://forum.elxis.org/index.php?topic=7223.0 but it's not clearly explained
My example:
/ home / username / public_html / repository
change in: / home / username / public_html / abcjehhekjeieke

The guy said he changed this line * mosConfig_absolute_path * but I can not find this line in my file * configuration.php * or Maybe the right line is * $REPO_PATH = ''; * ?

Question: Which file we to  change the path?

see next answer

Hello all,

For safety reasons elxis team strongly suggest to rename or change file * repository *

Here's how to:

1. Choose a new folder name for * repository * example: * renamemeinwhatyouwant *
2. Open your * configuration.php * go to line 5 is: private $ REPO_PATH = '/ home/mysite/public_html/ renamemeinwhatyouwant/'
and include the full address exactly as in my example, or if you move to folder root,  your site then line 5 is: private $ REPO_PATH = '/home/mysite/ renamemeinwhatyouwant/'
3. Once step 2 is complete, rename your file * renamemeinwhatyouwant *
4. If you have changed your * in local * configuration.php simply transfer the file via your favorite flp or if you just change on server just save and close.
5. Refresh your browser to make sure all is working properly.

Voila

One small addition to Batman007's wonderful explanation: you need to apply these steps on your config1.php, config2.php, etc. files if you are using the multisite function.
