How to change domain name?
If you want to change your domain name, this should be done on your Web Host Manager (contact your hosting company with this request). As soon as the domain is changed on the WHM, login to your server via FTP.
- Go to public_html/ directory.
- Open ow_includes/ directory.
- Open config.php file.
- Set the new domain name in this line:
define('OW_URL_HOME', 'http://site.com/');
- Then reissue the licence following the steps: http://hello.skadate.com/docs/manuals/licensing?s%5B%5D=reissue#reissue
Our system detects the valid domain automatically, the same way it finds the path to the server. If one domain is set in the config.php file, only this domain will be valid. Only the domain given in the config.php file is important, the licence is given to this domain.
Here are the additional configurations required after changing domain name:
1. Billing gateway plugins should be re-configured: If you are using PayPal Billing/CCBill Billing plugins, you should edit settings of your gateway account to reflect your new domain name. E.g. you will need to change your IPN URL within your PayPal account.
