In PHP files, find all ROOT_PATH."admin and change to: ROOT_PATH . ADMIN_PATH.'/'.

In includes/constants.php file,

add:

Code: [Select]

define('ADMIN_PATH', 'admin');

Change admin to name you want.

ADMIN_PATH.'/'.  ====> (mean the new name of the admin folder??? i.e: admin444 ??? )

In includes/constants.php file,

find:

Code: [Select]

define('TEMPLATE_DIR', 'templates');

add after:

Edit admin for new admin folder name. After, rename folder name in FTP.
