[joomla] Moving Domain from localhost to live Domain

Excerpt from Joomla documentation.


Have you moved domains?


Sometimes if you have changed domains (for example from a localhost or test
environment to the live domain) you will need to edit the value for the
$live_site variable in the configuration.php file found in the root
directory of your Joomla site files. The value of the variable must be
manually edited; it cannot be accessed via the Global Configuration screens.


Typically, it would look like: 

var $live_site = 'http://example.com';

Or, if you access your website in a sub-folder called joomla, it would be
like this: 

var $live_site = 'http://example.com/joomla';

When you move domains, this value may need updating to reflect your new
domain name: 

var $live_site = 'http://mynewdomain.com';

 

 

Is this something that has to be done?

 

 

Best regards,
