Hi there,

I’m running a project on Expression Engine 2.1.
My question seems maybe stupid, but, how can i transfere my EE website from “subdomain” to the “www domain” on the same server

ex : dev.mydomainename.com (EE site where it actually runs)

to

ex : http://www.mydomainename.com

Will i need to make a special trick to avoid loosing link between the database and the future url ?

The database connection should be fine, but you may have to correct the URLs in General Configuration. Also if any images/files were uploaded with the CP since installation, the urls for them may stick to the old sub-domain (which is why it is good to have relative URLs for your image/upload folders).

As for the actual transferring; it may be as simple as a DNS change, but it depends on your hosting. You may need to physically move the files with some hosts, so that they are in your “www” or “http” root folder.

Thanks for the assist, hd!

cremaster, does that help?
