Installation in a subfolder and user navigation

Permalink
Hello,
I would like to keep all the concrete5 stuff in a subdirectory but have the user digit onlyhttp://www.mysite.com.

I don't want to have all the concrete5 subs in the root because it is annoying when you have to uninstall everything (having also some other default directories).

What are the steps?
- do I have to configure something? (I tried with site.php, but it is not working)
- do I have to create a redirect to the concrete5 sub?
- do I have to move the index.php to the root?

Thanks.

The zipped file has the CMS packaged nicely in a subfolder. When I unzipped mine I had to move my files out of "5.4.0.3" into the folder I wanted. try that.
Also, the C5 comes with a set of folders: block, concrete, files, etc.... and you will notice that inside the concrete folder all these folders are repeated. That is because the inner concrete folder has all the core files. You don't ever have to mess with these which makes back-ups and upgrades a snap.

You should use an .htaccess file to redirect to the folder you have C5 installed in.
hope that helps. PM if you have questions.

Hello,
I downloaded the new package from concrete5.org and that was ok.
It is different from the other one (5.4.0.3) which I downloaded from sourceforge and had duplicates directories.
So this problem is solved.

I will now try modifying htaccess.
Thanks.
