Resetting a forum

Moderocky

So I had a perfectly working Flarum for about a year, and then I changed the main domain of my box (without altering any files).

As far as I know this shouldn't do anything to my Flarum, but now nothing at all seems to work with it, and I get Error 403 on every single page (except index, which is blank).

How can I reset my forum and set it up from scratch (without deleting all the files and start again) because I have literally no clue how the install process works and I had to pay somebody to do it for me last time.

yours,
Rocky

You probably just need to update config.php to reflect the new baseurl. This file will be in your root directory for the Flarum install.

Reseting a forum is probably not much easier than reinstalling from scratch at the moment...

And as webeindustry and UaMV pointed out the problem is probably easy to solve.

In your Flarum root directory, modify the config.php file to reflect the new domain:

'url' => 'http://example.com'

I don't know whether this is everything that is needed. Others could speak to that.

Okay, thanks. ?

As it happened it was a lot easier to install this time as the install script was already on the thingy.

Thanks for the help!
