Topic: How to change forum/directory name to a new one

Hello,
I've just installed a PunBB forum for the first time and now I want to change the name to something more appropriate. I presume I need to change it somewhere other than just the folder name via FTP because when I installed the entry form asked me for the Base URL.  So where is the base_url being stored? I can't find it in the DB at all!

I found this thread about how to do it in version 1.2 http://punbb.informer.com/forums/topic/ … e-changed/ but it mentions an Options area in the Admin section which I don't see in my Admin area.

You have to change the value of the $base_url variable in config.php.

Ah. Thanks for that. Found it. Somehow I missed the config.php file when I was looking last night.
