Ch0cu3r Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 So you have changed the name of a folder and you want to redirect to the new folder name? You could handle this using mod_rewrite, a few examples You can also use mod_rewrite to redirect to your new domain too.

lancealigiannis Posted August 24, 2014 Author Share Posted August 24, 2014 using some of them... all i got was a one way trip to a bad "require once" msg or sent to another domain... maybe php can include the files from another domain... but wat about just moving the files around different subdirectories... any more ideas? basically i'm trying to use the same site framework without 2 different site setups...

Ch0cu3r Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 To be clear mod_rewrite has no effect on PHP. It only effects url requests to the server. basically i'm trying to use the same site framework without 2 different site setups... Sounds to me you'd be better of running your 2 sites under two separate virtual hosts. Virtual hosts allows you to server to host multiple sites from the same server. Each site can have its own domain and document root. You could then add your framework to a central location on the server and then add it to the include_path Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/290603-change-folder-location/#findComment-1488803 Share on other sites More sharing options...
