i'm helping a friend with his website and i installed indexhibit in a test directory so we could work on it before launching it live. when we finished editing it i moved all the files to the root directory. i'm guessing this was a bad idea. i just don't know how to fix it. help?

Should work just fine...be sure you move your .htaccess file as well.

What isn't working?

Mine was fine after I moved .htaccess and fixed some accidental absolute urls.

interesting subject…

I'm currently testing Indexhibit locally, using 'Mamp'.

Looks like I can complete my local website before uploading folders & mysql base to a web server?

Can someone confirm?

Otherwise, well… I'll keep you posted as I try :D

No problem with building a site with Mamp and test locally, then move the files to the server and you get your site online.

You Just have to be careful about your database data if you do not know how to import/export the data using phpMySQL this can become a frustrating experience if you're not too technicaly inclined.

And like owen says, watch out for "accidental absolute urls".

I moved my site from http://www.josephallenkohlhas.com/portfolio into the root directory http://www.josephallenkohlhas.com

The front page of the site renders fine, however when I follow a link to one of the other pages, I get: "Not Found
The requested URL was not found on this server. Apache Server at josephallenkohlhas.com Port 80"

Any ideas what I am doing wrong?
