On EE6/7 accessing the back-office via renamed system directory is no longer working for me:
“Your system folder path does not appear to be set correctly. Please open the following file and correct this: index.php”
In one occasion I had a clean install and followed the usual practice to rename system directory. https://docs.expressionengine.com/v6/installation/best-practices.html#increasing-security
In another instance I upgraded from EE5. got the same result.
$system_path = ‘./myadminarea’;
What am I missing? Besides the index and admin php files where else I can tell EE to understand that new system directory name?
Thx.
Hello, if you have renamed the system directory in ExpressionEngine 6 or 7 and are encountering the error message “Your system folder path does not appear to be set correctly. Please open the following file and correct this: index.php,” there are a few additional steps you need to take to ensure that ExpressionEngine recognizes the new system directory name.
