Just move everything in the /c5 directory to your root. Then modify the config/site.php line 7 from:

define('DIR_REL', '/c5');

to


define('DIR_REL', '');

Make sure you first do a backup. It's always a good idea. The last thing you want is to loose all your hard work.

In addition to changing the config/site.php file as tallacman suggests, you also want to edit the .htaccess file (if one exists) at the top-level of your concrete5 site, and if you see "RewriteBase" in it, whatever it says change it to this:


Also, after you've moved it, log in and do these things:
1) Dashboard -> Sitewide Settings: Click the "Clear Cache" button
2) Dashboard -> Sitewide Settings -> Debug: Set Debug Level to "Production", click "Set Debug Level" button.
3) Dashboard -> System & Maintenance: click the "Run Checked" button in top-right corner.

Thank you! Followed all your instructions, and everything worked excellently -- much appreciated.

I attempted to do this exact thing under Concrete5 version 5.6.0.2 and the website functions, except I get no ability to continue to edit (the concrete5 sign in option and such is missing from the bottom of the page) as well as none of the pictures working. So I simply cannot do the delete cache option.

In my config folder site.php exists but there's no options to change the directory inside of it. Please advise.

Try going directly to the 'Clear Cache' page of the dashboard by putting this in your address bar:



That should ask you to log in and then send you directly to the 'Clear Cache' page so you can clear your cache. I would also suggest going to the dashboard immediately and turning Pretty URL's off and back on again to get that to reflect the new structure.

Also, version 5.6 doesn't need the DIR_REL values in config.php so you're fine without those lines.

One other little thing to bear in mind. Addons such Dynamic iFrame require a complete url in order to work. Clearly if you are using them moving up the tree will break those so make a note, you will have to manually edit them.
