Urgent help

Hi,
I was trying to fix an email verification preocess and followed these directions:
-----------------------

Quote:

Make sure that nuke Admin=>Preferences=>SiteURL is pointing to the directory where config.php is stored. Use the http:// prefix (http://www.somewhere.com or http://www.somewhere.com/html)

Make sure that nuke Admin=>Forums=>Configuration=>DomainName is pointing to the directory where config.php is stored. Do NOT use the http:// prefix (www.somewhere.com or www.somewhere.com/html)

-------------------

when I went into admin/preferences, I changed my site url from http://dweebcabal.com -- to: http://dweebcabal.com/main (adding the subdirectory). Now, I can't access my site, the admin, or anything.

I checked admin.php, and it is the correct url that I've been using as below:
------

Quote:

// Uncomment the following block of code after editing the next line to match your site domain
$domainname = "www.dweebcabal.com";
if ($_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] != $domainname ) {
echo "Access denied";
die();
}

----------

How can I fix the admin/preferences/site url using ftp?
Or other methods?

Thanks

It worked. Thank you so much.

How can I fix the register verification email to add the subdirectory "main" to the email link for new users?

Everytime I add the sub, it doesn't work (as my problem above happens)

OR,
Can I add instructions for new registrations to add the "main" subdirectory manually when they paste the url?
Where can I cange my message they read?

I have never used a subdomain for the registration mail I´m not sure why this not works, because when you change your nukeurl for example:
http://mysite.com/under/

The link in the email is correct like

'http://mysite.com/under/modules.php?name=Your_Account&op=activate&username=blahblah

I think it should also work with a subdomain and a correct link is better instead of instructions.

You would think so, but it didn't.
When I added the sub, the site shut down.
The link in the verification email does not add the sub "main" -- it just says:
Http://dweebcabal.com/modules........ instead of dweebcabal/main/modules.
I did change the url in the Forum/Configuation site url using the 'main' sub, and no ill effects so far.

Everything else seems to work fine however.

Hmmm.

I appreciate your time and effort.
Thanks Susann
