Hi
Yesterday we moved forum to a new host and got everything moved over.
Anyhow, something strange is happening..when using a temp domainname (waiting for the new one to propagate) it takes me to the forum.
But, when I log in, it redirects me to the old domain?
I´ve looked in the config file if I could change the path there, but didn´t find anything.
What am I missing here? Where can I set the paths for the temp domain?
Regards
Ray
The
./inc/config.php
file only defines database connection credentials and some security settings.
Here's a method you may follow:
- Navigate to the new URL to your forum's AdminCP, log in and change relevant settings in
Site Details
, such as Board URL and Cookies domain/path, etc.
- (Optionally) rebuild cache, and go to Templates & Style (still in AdminCP), select current using theme and just click
Save Stylesheet Order
or Save theme properties
. This may break theme CSS caching, but without doing this, some styles/JavaScripts might have issues.
Board URL is cached in
./inc/settings.php
which is not recommended to edit manually, but not the
./inc/config.php
file.
Thanks for your response.
I don´t really know now why, but I can´t access the ACP to make changes.
Seems everything is messed up.

Have your already restored the database and changed the database connection credential in
./inc/config.php
of your migrated MyBB? If not, do this first.
Suppose your new domain is
mydomain.example
and the path to your migrated MyBB is
path_to_mybb
, and you haven't changed your AdminCP folder name, you should be able to access the AdminCP via:
https://mydomain.example/path_to_mybb/admin/index.php
, or replace
https
with
http
if you're using unencrypted HTTP.
If you've changed your AdminCP folder name, says
mYaDmInCp
, just replace
admin
with this name in the URL.
If there's any problem, please specific it with any message displayed in your browser.
Ok, my friend helped me and we got it fixed now.
All is working as it should.
Thank you for your assitance.
