    hey there.  i have been building my new EE site in one folder (/ee/) and everything is working perfectly.  i now want to go live with it and move it to the root folder.  how do i do this?  i’ve downloaded and installed REElocate (http://devot-ee.com/add-ons/reelocate)

    thanks!

    Hi waterintowine,

    This should be relatively simple. Move all of your files out of /ee/ and into the root. Go into index.php and admin.php and change your site_url variable around line 43. Then login to your CP and make all the necessary path changes, which reelocate appears to make easy to find.

    If you have any trouble let me know.
