Hello.
My current install uses subdomains, but because of the control panel installed on my site, the subdomains are setup in a weird way.
For instance, to setup a subdomain such as freemail.domain.com, one has to actually create a folder called freemail.domain.com so as to have domain.com/freemail.domain.com. THis then resolves to freemail.domain.com.
Unfortunately, this setup prevents me from offering a secured message environments to my users. In other words, https://freemail.domain.com (with "https" is impossible to get and leads to a page not found.
Because of this, I have to reinstall my Gossamer under a setup that will not use a subdomain, but rather a straight forward install that will work as http://www.domain.com/freemail/...
However, I have a few questions:
1) Can I safely reinstall Gossamer under the same domain without killing anything?
2) Will I be able to import users and their messages from the current install to the new one without trouble? If Yes, how do I do this?
3) I did a lot of customization of appearance in both French and English. Will I be able to import all these templates? How do I do this?
4) Any other thing I need to pay attention to?
ALSO:
I assume that what I need to do here could also be done in a simpler way by simply changind URLs and paths in the current Gossamer install to reflect the new changes. If this is possible, what files should I look at for changing crucial URLs and Paths?
Thanks.
