Moving directory, just a couple questions before starting

Greetings, I am new to the whole Zen Cart thing but I must say after going for about 48 hours with it I am really liking it. Now, I made a mistake when setting it up for the first time I put it in https://www.mysite.com/Store as I (like many others) thought it was more of a store and not really a "whole site replacement". I have since learned the error in my ways and I am ready to move it from https://www.mysite.com/Store to just https://www.mysite.com but I wanted to check a couple things before doing this as I don't want to mess it up.

I have read the step by step guide located here: http://www.zen-cart.com/content.php?160-i-have-installed-zen-cart-to-a-directory-how-do-i-rename-or-move-that-directory

The first step is changing the Session config, Mine is currently set to "/home/content/31/9989431/html/Store/cache" Do I just want to change it to "/home/content/31/9989431/html/cache"?

Then, in looking in the configs to edit I see:

'DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/Store/'

Do I want to just change these guys to;

'DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/'

?

Thank you very much for you help and I tried to search for the answers but these questions stumped me.

Yes this is correct
Then, in looking in the configs to edit I see:

'DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/Store/'

Do I want to just change these guys to;

'DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/'
Yes, in both configure.php files remove the /store/ pointings - All of them

Kobra,

Spot on, thank you! :hug:

I have completed all the steps and the move was a success first shot! I am just a little OCD when it comes to following steps and I want to list them all out first and know what I am doing before I do it and the guide was great!

Thanks to everyone in the community for what you do, and a special thanks to Kobra for the quick and accurate response!
