How do I change the index.php file name on the client side?
You can change the "lead" or "root" file of the classifieds/auction system from index.php to anything you wish. If you leave the index.php file as is the Geo software will automatically appear when the directory it is installed in is entered into a browser (if there is no other "index" file conflicts in the same directory)....thus making it the default page in the directory it is placed...or the home page of the site if it is within the main directory of your url. But if you still wish to change the file this requires a few steps:
1) Within SITE CONFIGURATION > GENERAL of the admin tool you must change the "site url" to contain the name of your new file at the end of the address. You must also change the "file name" setting in the same admin to your new file name. This sets the address for all places within the site that need the address...except templates or html modules.
2) The software comes to you with a "index.php" lead file within the main directory. Change the name of this file to file name you wish to use. This file must have a "php" extension.
3) You must use the new file name link within all your page templates and html modules where "index.php" currently is. The default design comes to you with "index.php" as the lead file and so changes would be needed in several places of the design.
