attention boonex

can boonex please find other ways we can get to the administration page without the url http://www.yoursite.com/administration

i tried to check facebook.com/administration

google.com/administration

bbc.co.uk/administration

dolphin-site.com/administration.. hooraayy username and a password

this is not really authentic boonex.does it mean all boonex powered website has to be /administration to get to administration page.

the worst bit is when you type www.your-site.com/administration you see dolphin 7 admin and boonex username and password.having a paid license i dont think these still should appear on myy domain

While Boonex doesn't make it blatantly obvious on how to do what you are asking, it is possible. Instructions below (I have tested this against my own site with no issues as of yet):

Rename [root]\administration to whatever you please

Open [root]\inc\header.inc.php

Find Line 24:

$admin_dir                 = "administration";

Change to

$admin_dir                 = "yournewfoldername";

Replace the following images with your own:

Bottom Right - www.yoursite.com/administration/templates/base/images/admin_login_admin_logo.png

Bottom Left - www.youriste.com/media/images/small_logo.png

Hope this helps!

Not prompting for a username and passwords would be a security risk So regardless of paid license or not, it still has to prompt for logon for what should be obvious security reasons.

Perhaps i am misunderstanding what your saying here.

Get the deano92964 tool and you should be fine

You can change the URI as said above, as well as remove any branding from the administration panel (login page included) if you have purchased a license.

He meant all 'out of the box' Dolphin sites have the admin area as domain.com/administration which in turn displays the Dolphin logos, confirming what the backend software is. I'd recommend changing the admin directory name as shown above along with altering the graphics on that page if it really bothers you.

anytime i change the name to something else it says profile not found

You did change both the name in inc/header.inc.php and the actual folder name to match?

is it nt changing the line 24 can u please explain how to match it

In the dolphin directory rename the administration folder to the name you want.

Then in inc/header.inc.php change this to match the new name.

$admin_dir                 = "administration";   <--- This is what tells dolphin what you named the folder.
