    Default can't change directory name

    Hi Guys, hope you can help; aiming to change the name of the zencart directory, which is what I installed it as, to "kilts online" to better reflect the nature of the store etc, tried following all the instructions on https://www.zen-cart.com/content.php...that-directory,
    but when it's done all the formatting, images etc disappears from the site. Had to change it back; any idea what I'm doing wrong?
    All the best

    Did you really have that space in the directory name? If so, try kilts_online instead.

    Yep, or simply kiltsonline - that space could just be the culprit...

    No, sorry, it was just "kilts online" no space!

    Did you clear the browser cache after changing the folder name and all of the references in includes/configure.php? Also is there an .htaccess file in your main directory and/or in your "zencart" directory that contains a reference to your "zencart" directory that didn't get updated?
