    I am working on a website, and first time dealing with phpmyadmin. Recently I have changed the websites directory structure, and unfortunately my bridges of Joomla<>Coppermine<>PhpBB3 no longer works.

    Example of directory structure :

    Old structure : http://blablablabla.com/joomla/forum/...
    New structure : http://blablablabla.com/forum

    So...any idea how to change all the things in the db to reflect to the new directory structure? Or have I destroyed my 2months worth of effort? :(

    You may have to look into joomla configuration files, there might be a variable containing http path or installation path and simply change that variable to reflect the new path.

    I had to go meet a friend of mine regarding this issue, and yes, she also said the same thing :rolleyes:

    So after that I spent like 2 days opening up all of the files to see if they are pointing to the wrong URL.

    Thanks anyway for the one and only reply :)
