Read moreManaging CiviCRM Folders, Links, Etc
Currently installing CiviCRM into my site, but having troubles with the folder layout. By this I mean...
My new drupal site is running through a subdomain - beta.example.com which is pointing toward example.com/beta
When I install civicrm and 'work' with it, most links within the program point to example.com/beta/civicrm - this will not work for me.
I need civicrm to point toward beta.example.com/civicrm... so when I flip the switch to make the beta site the live site, I won't have any troubles with the CiviCRM install.
