Changing the base URL?
Development and Programming
Hi all,
At the moment, I’m trying to change the base url of a client’s website.
I’m able to map most of it so far, however there are a few things in there that appear to be hard-coded (like the top navigation menu). I was able to get a copy of the database and was browsing around through that. One thing that I noticed is that there’s a reference to the old website in the database, and was wondering if that might be it.
I have extensively checked the source files for hard-coded links, but have been unable to find any reference.
How should I go about solving this?

I would recommend two things. First use Deeploy Helper to double check your paths across the database. Then use the Template search to look for “old” domain names hardcoded within templates.
