Full Version: Moving Forum to new Account

So I installed my forum to http://livelifesatified.webuda.com/ then realised that I spelled the URL wrong. I created a new account at http://livelifesatisfied.net46.net/. I followed the instructions here and it seemed to work, however when I click on anything, it redirects me to the old website. So I read:

Quote:If you type in your new domain address followed by /admin then you will be directed to the new Admin CP.
Then change (in your settings) the board URL to the new URL, and the other options of a similar nature, obviously.

Before doing so, ensure all files are correctly CHMOD'ed.

So, I went to http://livelifesatisfied.net46.net/admin/index.php and logged in, the main page appeared fine, but when I clicked "Configuration", it asked me to log in again, and when I logged in, nothing happened, the page effectively redirected to itself. Also, when I log in on the main page, it says I have logged in, but returns to the main forum index logged in as "guest". It would seem it is impossible to log in.

I did also CHMOD the files in the FTP according to this.

If anyone knows what I'm doing wrong, please tell me. If anyone from support wanted to teamviewer me installing the forum again it would be appreciated if you see fit.

Thanks,
Marmaduke

You'll need to change the board URL as well as the cookie settings.

Is there a way to change that without logging into the AdminCP?
Yes, it's explained in the thread I linked to.
