Otsikko: Fix URL
Kirjoitti: spartan1project - kesäkuu 07, 2011, 02:23:43 IP
I changed my url like an idiot and now it's all messed up no matter what I do.  How can I reset it to the original url (I do not remember it)?

Thanks

so you upload that script to your server and it does not work? you can try editing carefully your settings.php file where it says $boardurl =, be sure to back it up first in case something happens.

f that, i am just going to uninstall my forum and maybe start over.  thanks for the help though.  appreciate the effort but if it's this complicated just to change a url then it's easier to start over.

yeah it works at first but when you go to another location it brings you to the error message.   no matter what you click on, you get this:

well did you try what i suggested above? it should fix it, or if you are logged in already you can try the file i suggested above.

http://forum.spartan1project.com/forum/index.php?action=login should let you login as well.
