how rename modules/boonex to something else

Hi guys

Im order to hide boonex as much I can I need replace name of folder modules/boonex/ with another name..like module/main or whatever. The thing is I dunno in what exact files I need change path after I rename this folder. Can somebody help ? Maybe somebody already did this and can name all files where path need to be changed...

thx in advance..

nobody ?

I'm interested in this too.

Hello, you'll need follow these steps :

1. Create directory 'Main' for example
2. Copy there poll module for example too
3. Open the modules/main/poll/install/config.php

find this string :

'home_dir' => 'boonex/poll/',

and replace to :

'home_dir' => 'main/poll/',

that all!

Great, thanks!

If you want to change the path for other modules as well, the best way to do this is to export your database, use a good text editor to search and replace all of "boonex/" strings with "main/", save it, backup your database, empty the current database, and finally import the modified SQL file.

Make sure you change the strings in .htaccess in the root directory too.

Don't forget to change boonex/ to main/ in all files.

If you have Dreamweaver, just point the search scope to your local dolphin modules/boonex directory and replace all.

I have confirmed that it works.

I don't think just changing the paths in the files will resolve it completely..there are paths in the database as well. So you will have to change all the path under boonex folder and then change them in the database ....

Yeah. See my instructions above.

Thanks for tips guys... I found out that even if I change boonex folder if somebody copy some other line in source and search for it in google they anyway end up on boonex. Is possible somehow encrypt source so people who try view source code in browser will se encrypted code instead of normal code ? What about ion cube or zend ? I dont have any experiance in encoding php source files - can I encrypt filee if Im on shared host or I will need dedicated server with an zend or ioncube decryption app ? Did somebody tried encode dolphin with zend or ioncube ? What about phplockit ..did someboy tried it ?

I haven't renamed boonex but I have renamed the folder for an extension module. 

First, rename the folder. 

Then open the database and change path and uri settings in these tables for the module:

sys_account_custom_stat_elements
sys_modules
sys_objects_actions
sys_objects_categories
sys_objects_search
sys_objects_tag
sys_objects_vote
sys_permalinks
sys_stat_site

Finally, open the navigation menu, click on the menu items you need to change and modify the paths for URL and Picture.

Is there a solution for this? 

 Yeah.... leave it alone because it's senseless to do it.
