  • Using FTP client to move (it is safer than copy!) aMember to new folder

  • Edit file .htaccess in the root folder of aMember installation

    • you need to replace RewriteBase /oldamemberdir with RewriteBase /newamemberdir

  • Open page http://example.com/newamemberdir/admin/ in browser

  • Go to aMember CP -> Configuration -> Setup/Configuration -> Global : Root Url and License Keys . Change root URLs so it points to new aMember location.

  • Go to aMember CP -> Protect Content -> Folders and re-protect all folders (just click Edit on each, then Save)

  • For all payment plugins, make sure to change IPN/Notification URLs are configured on payment system side to point to new aMember location

  • If you have aMember Plugin in WordPress installed and configured, login to your Wordpress Admin Dashboard and re-configure aMember plugin to use new aMember location
