Drupal Admin

Changing Drupal installation folder name

Following what VM posted, adding the running of update.php

• If using clean urls, turn them off
• if using page caching turn it off
• if using css aggregation turn it off
• clear you brwoser cache
• clear your DB cache tables
• rename the folder
• run update.php (e.g. visit yoursite.com/update.php)
• turn clean urls back on (if in use)
• turn page cacheing back on (if in use)
• turn css aggregation back on (if in use)

also note that if you set up a $base_url in settings.php you will have to alter this to reflect the new structure.
