I'm changing the main domain www.olddomain.com of my Oxwall installation to a new domain www.newdomain.com.

What is exactly the detail procedure
that I use to do this without any problems?

To complete above mail my needs is exactly this :

- hosting directory is the same, not change
- i need only to change the domain because old domain in a few days will no longer be available
- the new domain is manage
by the same provider where folder is installed

Thanks in advance

Just change your HOME URI line in the ow_includes/config.php file for it to work. 


Also you will need to change the site name, for the proper display, in the admin main settings configurations.

Ross we know what is smtp :D

My question is if you refer only this in "admin main settings configurations" that you you've indicated in previous post.

Thanks

lattinaD, I suppose, Ross means the Site Name field in Admin Area>Settings>Main Settings>Basic tap. You need to change it for the proper display the site name which used for {$site_name} variable.
