Change the name of orca folder?

How do I can change the name of ORCA folder to FORUMS.

I think you have to go into ADMIN of dolphin and change the folder in orca to forums in ( language settings )

also i would check in phpmyadmin orca database

also change your orca forum to forums not forum cause there is already another forum in the folders of your root of dolphin

To change folder orca to forums.

in file orca/xml/config.php change;

$path = $dir['root'] . 'orca/'; // path to orca files

to

$path = $dir['root'] . 'forums/'; // path to orca files

and change;

$gConf['url']['base'] = $site['url'] . 'orca/'; // base url

to

$gConf['url']['base'] = $site['url'] . 'forums/'; // base url

Then Rename to orca folder to forums and change links in ADMIN PANEL - Navigation Menu Builder - Forums.

Then phpmyadmin your data base : on Tables;

AdminMenu - Orca Forum edit the url from ../orca/ to ../forums/

SiteStat - tps edit UserLink from orca to forums

SiteStat - pts edit UserLink from orca to forums

TopMenu - My Flags link from orca/#action=goto&my_flags=1 to forums/#action=goto&my_flags=1

TopMenu - My Topics link from orca/#action=goto&my_threads=1 to forums/#action=goto&my_threads=1

TopMenu - Search link from orca/#action=goto&search=1 to forums/#action=goto&search=1

After this in ADMIN PANEL - Navigation Menu Builder under forums replace the items with new ie Search, My Topics and My Flags as the original one are not editable.

Don't forget to change your RSS urls accordingly

That's it.... check it out http://www.truckbuddies.com/forum

lancashiredates, I don't get this part:

 After this in ADMIN PANEL - Navigation Menu Builder under forums replace the items with new ie Search, My Topics and My Flags as the original one are not editable.

We change those links directly in the database (via PhpMyAdmin etc.) as you mentioned before, so there is no need to replace those items again, am I correct?

 Thanks for posting that, worked fine for me!

If yours worked without replacing thats fine. mine didn't so I replaced them.... Glad you liked it.

Instructions for v 6.1.4 goto

Guys, can you still compile language, after moving orca to a different directory? Mine is giving me an error (meaningless I am afraid..) and I am not sure why...

If you follow the new instructions for 6.1.4 you should have no problem recompiling languages. In fact it is recommended to Recompile after this update. check link below

Yes I did follow those instructions before. This time it was a problem with the file permissions, I have changed chmod's and now language compile just fine.
