Subject: Renaming system
The answer is probable sitting right in front of me. I set up a system to develop a new WEC web site for of a church.
When I installed WEC, I used the development system's name loyd.dunlap.org. Now I want to bring the same machine up as www.lwumc.com.
I renamed the machine to asbury.lwumc.com and set the DNS entry for www.lwumc.com to a CNAME for asbury.lwumc.com.
When I point my web browser to www.lwumc.com, I get the new website. However, all the links in the site have loyd.dunlap.org.
How do I get all the links to pages in WEC to be www.lwumc.com?

Thanks,
-Kevin

Hey Kevin,
The links are all generated based on the WEC Constant for the Site URL, which can be edited within the Web->WEC Config module.

You can find a tutorial on using WEC Config at http://webempoweredchurch.com/support/howtos/single/modify_wec_constant_using_the_wec_config_extension/.

Hope that helps
Jeff

Thanks Jeff!

I kept looking at WEC Config, I just kept missing the right hand menu.
Thanks for the pointer to help me see the way.
