Hello,

I need to change hosts and was wondering if there were any instructions documented?

Just copy all files with correct permissions and make sure server clock is synced.

I'll add this to augment the forum search feature.

After you move the files over... edit these files to change the new host directory path:

tp/data/settings/ssi_in_conf.php

You can manually edit your toplists and change the path in this directory:
tp/tops/<something>.set

Edit the scriptpath in this file:
tp/variables.php

I also emptied this directory:
tp/data/content

which contained older browser sessions.

Thanks... moved over 5 the other day and it's working great!

tp/data/settings/ssi_in_conf.php

ETA: Path is on Line 3



You can manually edit your toplists and change the path in this directory:
tp/tops/<something>.set

ETA: Path is on Line 1, TWO TIMES


Edit the scriptpath in this file:
tp/variables.php

ETA: Path is on Line 2


I also emptied this directory:
tp/data/content

which contained older browser sessions.

Figured I would add this information in blue for anyone who is newer to this system. Search feature pulled this up by the "change path" string. So I will also add some more keywords:

script path
change script path
change database (my first string)
