Installation Help

I am currently building a site that is stored inwww.www.domainname.com/concrete.... It is there because the site is currently up and running which was built by someone else.

Once I have completed it what is the best way to get it up and running? is it a simple as copying all the folders the the host file?

For me the most clean option is to move (download, delete from server, and paste to destination directory) all files. You have to clean cache first (before downloading), and after moving change the site.php file which is in config/ directory: you need to change
define('DIR_REL', '/concrete');

to 
define('DIR_REL', '');


If you change domain you have to change the other lines of course, and if you change database, you have to move whole database (of course :) ) (simply from backup option in Dashboard), and change database info in that site.php file... This is simple. :)

There is also possibility to just use .htaccess file (you can find it somewhere in forums) but for me it's not the best option... (This is only my opinion...)

Cheers,
