I am doing a clean install of 155a. I want to change the name of the admin directory from the default created in the install process to something equally obscure that I can remember easily. It's OK - I can get 100% on phpMyAdmin, and still recall. I don't want to have to chase up something I can't recall. But there does not seem to be any way to change it from what the install process creates. Where is it saved in the install process?

Re: change admin directory name
Technically the folder name itself is the "storage" location. The admin is "self detecting" so, go ahead. Rename it. Then your access of it will be "fine". At least for a default install of ZC 1.5.1 and above.
