admin directory name change

[Kevin205]

I have just installed "AJAX_image_swapper_v3.1.4" plugin from http://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=564

It is not functioning at all.

I was trying to figure out what I have done wrong. Following User Manual of "AJAX_image_swapper", it mentioned that I had to configure Admin - Configurations - AJAX Image Swapper and Admin - Catalog - AJAX Image Swapper Manager of which none could be found under the admin.

So I thought it might because the /admin/ directory's name is not /admin/ and it's /admin****/ from installation. As I searched through the forum, i found http://www.zen-cart.com/content.php?75 thread.
It is saying to A) edit the configure.php settings and upload them, B) rename the admin folder. I have opened both "configure.php" files /includes/configure.php and /admin****/includes/configure.php and can not find where the directory is defined.

Where is admin's directory defined?

For v1.5.x, the instructions are simpler. All you need to do is rename the directory, and the admin configure.php will auto-detect the actual path. The catalog side does not need to know where admin is, so there is no reference to it there.

So all I have to do is to rename the directory from admin**** to adminfuNsttUf and that's it? Then I can log in as http://www.MyDomain.com/adminfuNsttUf/ for admin?

Can this be done periodically?

Yes, you can rename your admin whenever you like.

Wow. That's cool.

Thanks again.
