problem moving site

I recently upgraded 6.16 --> 7.0.0 and all went rather well.  When we were finished evaluating the new site (oldsite = http://mysite.com newsite=http://mysite.com/7 ) we wanted to move Dolphin 7 to our root of the site.  This seemed to be a simple procedure.  We  moved the site from the /7/ directory to the root and then changed the entries in the .htaccess file (rewrite base) and then edited the ic/header.inc.php file.

The problem is this:

The site comes up and works except for a few things like the boonex news and the login "pop-up".  When we look at the page source for the login pop-up we see that somehow it is still registering the "base" as being http://mysite.com/7.

Is there another file that needs editing besides .htaccess and inc/header.inc.php to make sure that everything is pointing to the same place?

Any help is appreciated.

That should be it.

Did you empty the contents of cache, cache_public and the tmp folder?

That is the only thing i can think of at the moment that might be causing it.

In your .htaccess file located in the root, try changing the code to this:

Under RewriteEngine On

Add this:

RewriteBase /7/

If your NEW location is www.mysite.com/7

But you said this: (oldsite = http://mysite.com newsite=http://mysite.com/7 ) then stated "We  moved the site from the /7/ directory to the root"

If the NEW site is www.mysite.com

Make it this instead:

RewriteBase /         OR try removing it all together.

EDIT: And as Deano said, make sure you clear your cache folder

Thanks everyone...but I had a brain-fart I figured it out.  Everything about the move was correct (ie. editing the inc/header.inc.php and .htaccess files)

To manually clear the cache, which was my problem I now understand, all I did was go into admin->advanced settings->templates and remove the checks next to all the cache options. Then re-enable them and all is well in website land.
