    Possible name change

    I have a question for ya but I'll explain the reason first.

    My site is a world of warcraft guild site. The name of the guild is "The Bed Intruders" it's been fine all this time but I guess someone decided to report the name to Blizzard so now they are making us change it. At the moment the guild hasn't decided on the name yet but when it does the site link will have to change as well. I was wondering how I would go about doing that. Would I have to attach a whole new site to my membership and transfer the files over or would I be able to submit a ticket or something to get the link changed over?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    ***Removed my original line, GtoXic (next reply) has the correct location for where the modify domain screen is***

    A word of caution PRIOR to doing that: many CMS and Forum software's rely on having the domain set in their configuration so they can show the links properly. You will want to investigate how to change these for your chosen CMS/Forum setup so when you make the change, you know where to go in the settings or what to do to make sure the configuration matches the new URL.

    I know Wordpress is a major whiner about having the wrong domain, for instance There's a free script in their help area to repair the settings if this is changed, I don't know if e107 has something similar.

    to get to where Livewire stated, goto the control panel, then go into Hosting then Modify Domain. You will see
    Modify Main Domain
    [ ] Use an x10Hosting subdomain as my account's main domain
    Make sure that the checkbox is ticked otherwise it will NOT work.
