Hi,

I have created web shop in a directory and now wants to launch sindan on the real site.

How do I change the URL in the admin? I have changed all the addresses in the config.php file but it does not work so well. some images disappear among others. Talked to my ISP Loopia who mentioned that I also need to change the URL in the settings. How do I do this?

Grateful for answers if there is someone who has had the same problem.

Am I clear enough?

Stefan, there are no settings inside the Admin for you to change when your web shop goes live. You probably have a typo in the config.php file.

Did you save a copy of your config.php so you can compare them and see where the error is?

well for one, you're going to have to move the whole site from the directory/folder to the root of your site...

I have already done so. The problem I have is that it still links to the old address. my new url is www.mrfriis.se old is www.webbshop.mrfrii.se

What could be the problem?

That link doesn't work for me, but http://www.mrfriis.se/ does. Maybe it's just cached in your browser.
