Upgrade but keep store in original directory

I might be missing something obvious with the upgrade process. I have this store: https://www.sportsrivals.net/store and upgraded to 1.3.7 here https://www.sportsrivals.net/newstore.

at this point I want to move the /newstore files into the /store directory. Google has indexed a bunch of the /store directory and I don't want to start over with /newstore.

how do I get 1.3.7 changes into my original /store directory?

thx

Re: Upgrade but keep store in original directory

I have seen the instructions and know what to do - but i am a little unsure what to do here:
define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/shop/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/shop/');

Do I do this ?
define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '//');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '//');
thanks

Re: Upgrade but keep store in original directory

Just the one slash not the double:

define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/');
define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/');

Re: Upgrade but keep store in original directory

Thanks for the update and explaining some of the benefits a simple erroneous slash ( / ) can cause on your configure.php files ... it is a great help to others ... :smile:
