How to change paths when unpacking backup on different domain?

Hello,

I have this problem:
I have moved all my content to another domain by using the backup I saved.

The site looks as it should, but when I try to use plugins (contact and backup) they don't work and direct me to the old place (Where all the files were already deleted.)

And so: when I try to send myself a test e-mail message using contact plugin, I can't send it and get 404 and the old address path in the bar. The same goes for backup plugin: I can create backup and use it, but when I try to download it to my disc I get another 404 page.

I assume there is some info about path in the core that needs to be changed, but as I only know HTML and CSS, I seriously need help with this one. I'd be really thankful if you could point me in the right direction guys, because, apparently, I'm too stupid to figure things out :?


P.S.: And hey, hi, nice to be here BTW :)

Yes, I tried the latest versions.
I'll take your advice and try to ask in plugin subforums then, thank you for answering :)

Hi Esta.


Backup plugin save the last serveur url in config.
Just edit the bl-content/databases/site.php
And change this line:

Code: Select all

"url": "http:\/\/localhost\/CMS\/bludit\/",
Or try to change the site url in settings advanced backend.
