Need help with a configuration issue

Permalink
Hello! I installed concrete 5 in a subdirectory on my site called 'c5' I'd like the URL (which ishttp://www.cierracreative.com) to go right to that subdirectory. This is what I have in the config/site.php file:

define('BASE_URL', 'http://www.cierracreative.com');
define('DIR_REL', '/c5');

I tried moving all the c5 files to the root folder and then modifying the config/site.php file to:

('DIR_REL', '/') and ('DIR_REL', '')

One of those gave me some success in that the index page came up when I typed in the URL (can't remember which though - it was a late night), but all the links and images were broken. At this point I'd love to keep the files in /c5 if possible.

If anyone could advise it would be much, much appreciated, as I'd love to launch my first c5 site :)

Thanks!

if you're changing to root, most likely DIR_REL should be '' not '/'.

I don't think you'll be able to leave files in /c5 while moving everything else up.

I just wanted to thank you for your help
- turns out I forgot to edit the pretty url code in the .htaccess file, and I think this was causing the problem.

Thanks though :)
