easy (sort of ) I actually did this today...
You don't want 'links' you want to move the store up one level in your directory. Instead of www.scapbook.com pointing to your index.html file it will use the index.php file that is included under the zencart (store2) directory.
You can use your FTP program to "move to" the files up one level. (from httpdocs/store2/admin to httpdocs/admin etc - ie select folder, right click move to httpdocs) - USUALLY the way it works, different FTP programs have different ways of working
important: Look in Forum FAQ - do search for 'rename' - http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/faq.ph...l&titlesonly=0 - you'll see a couple items about renaming the folder etc. Follow the instructions thouroughly - and you should practice editing files first - not a good idea for this to be your first editing adventure --again you need a text editor that color codes so you can find relevant code stuff easily (dreamweaver works)
the two configure files show other files where to look for things. The sessions ID is changed in admin/configuration/sessions
For example only DO NOT COPY and use (there are a couple more edits per page)...
Code:
define('DIR_WS_ADMIN', '/store2/admin/');
define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/store2/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_ADMIN', '/store2/admin/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/store2');
define('DIR_FS_ADMIN', '/usr/local/4admin/apache/vhosts/yoursite.com/httpdocs/store2/admin/');
changes to
Code:
define('DIR_WS_ADMIN', '/admin/');
define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_ADMIN', '/admin/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/');
define('DIR_FS_ADMIN', '/usr/local/4admin/apache/vhosts/yoursite.com/httpdocs/admin/');
this is a slightly incomplete explanation - you also need to rename your 'admin' directory to another name for security (you can search that topic)
I had issues with image folders but that was because I was running to stores while setting up the new Zen v1.3.0.2. If you have a store1 that might cause you some heartburn. You probably will be okay with that - just BACK UP BACK UP BACK UP - and you can rename files temporarily if you want to put a file folder where another one is...maybe a little too much info...
and do a little searching on the forum for this and related topics
you can always repost another question after doing a little homework if this is all a little too newbie for you
after awhile it makes sense
