Just messed up bigtime :(

I need some help with Reviewpost i Just changed the folder name because I wanted it to say something other than .com/reviewpost but it messed it up and I cant get back into admin to revert the url settings under global options. What do I do to fix this?

if all you did was rename the directory simply rename it back to reviewpost

If you changed the url to reflect the new directory name then making sure the directory is that name should help

without knowing exactly what the error is all I can do is guess here.

How about a url?

I renamed the directory AND changed the fields to the new directory name in the admin console

Yikes!

okay well if you changed the urls in database and also renamed the directory and changed the path in the config files correctly you should be fine

You really need to post a url and error for us to answer you here.

pennyauctionwatch dot com / reviewpost but i cant get back into the admin settings now because i changed the url in the options panel, is there a file I can change to fix this?

It's like the redirect does not work, I changed the url manually from penny-auction-reviews, what I wanted it to be, back to reviewpost and still once it goes to login then misc its a white screen yikes! Thank you

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

That's what I changed, the URL paths, all of them EEK^^ and need to change back but cant!

okay well you did not just change a directory name. You changed the domain name also and something is probally wrong with your server domain setup not linking like your suppose to link it.

To set things back the way they where upload your install script and rerun your install into the same database and table prefix and install correctly. As long as you reinstall into the same database tables you wont delete anything just fix your server paths and urls.

Thank you, I will try that now. How do I go about changing the folder name or can I?

Your next error place the proper server path to vbulletin etc on the last step of install.

When it gets to language strings I get an error page for my blog so it's not letting me finish the reinstall.. How can I drop the tables and just reinstall ? Just delete everything in my db that has the rp in front of it?

Your blog should have nothing to do with reviewpost so not sure what that issue is all about

http://www.pennyauctionwatch.com/reviewpost

by the way this domain name does not appear to exist which was probally alot of your issue

www.penny-auction-reviews.com

Chuck S · March 18th, 2010, 08:18 PM
