    Changing the name of Umbraco

    Hi all,

    I am new to Umbraco and trying to set up my first site. I am having some weird setup issues and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions.

    I need the CMS to use the URL /siteadmin/ not /umbraco/ This part is working. I updated my web.config to and changed the folder name from Umbraco to Siteadmin. For some reason it creates another Umbraco folder that is just a duplicate of siteadmin, not really sure why it is doing that but, I don't think that is where my problem is.

    My issue is that when I go to save a style sheet in the editor I am getting this a 404 error, it says it is trying to reach /siteadmin/umbraco/siteadmin/settings/stylesheet/editStylesheet.aspx the path it should be looking at is /siteadmin/settings/stylesheet/editStylesheet.aspx which I verified is valid. I do my editing in Visual Studio I am just creating these pages and writing a comment in the editor itself.

    So my question is did I set up the project wrong? was there something else I need to do to get /siteadmin/ fully setup to be the CMS URL?

    Thanks in advance,

    -Charlie

    Hi Charlie

    Personally I have never tried changing the URL, but I did find this post which may be of use.

    http://jondjones.com/learn-umbraco-cms/umbraco-developers-guide/umbraco-troubleshooting/how-to-change-the-umbraco-7-admin-url

    In theory it seems straight forward, but wondering if you updated both settings as described in the above link.

    Cheers, Nigel
