Moving alegro to public html

[Hodge]

Hello,
I looked for a thread for this but could not find any....
I have installed alegro 2.5 in a subfolder on the domain...www mysite com/alegro
and would like to know how to move it so that it is accessable public html ...www mysite com
Can I BackUp and restore to public html ?
What changes will I need to do to make it function at the www mysite com level
Thanx for all help

All you really need to do is move all the files from the subfolder to the publicfolder.
You then need to edit confih.php to reflect the new path.
In .htacess change the RewriteBase /alegro/ to RewriteBase /
That should be all that is required.
Move it and test before you delete the subfolder.

Thanx Brent,
sounds easy but moving all the folders would I have to download them and then upload them ?
Or should I check with my server personal ?
Thanx

I'm going to let Leo answer that question.
He is more of an expert at that.

Thanks again,
I decided to do a fresh install
The changes were minute and can be easily duplicated.
Have a wonderful day
