Hi,

I want to change my admin directory name to something else inorder to prevent unauthorized access.

I think I can't simply rename the admin folder to something else because it would affect many related codes right ??

So how could I safely change it's name ?? without causing any problem.


Thank You

Have a nice day.
Rename the directory and then change the name of the directory in ./inc/config.php.

MyBB was designed to use the array key in ./inc/config.php to identify the ACP directory instead of the default /admin/.
Thank You,
