    Hi,
    After installing wordpress along with the VideoCraft theme onto the live server, I tried to make default web URL as home directory(www.highstreetvideos.com) instead of (www.highstreetvideos.com/wordpress) by following the steps on the wordpress site. Everything works except the "SignIn" and "Add Video" menu items. The links underneath still point to (/wordpress). Can you please tell me how to change them ?

    Thank you.

    Hello,

    Go to --> dashboard --> Setting --> General -->Site Address (URL)
    and enter your site url www.highstreetvideos.com
    as shown in screenshot

    This will solve your issue.

    Thanks & Regards

    Hi Yogesh,
    I had done that since it was part of the instructions on the wordpress site (to move a wordpress website to home directory )(attaching screenshot).But the issue is still there. It is only SignIn and Add Video button whose underlying links were not updated. Is there anyway in the theme I can change this.

    Thank you for your help.

    Regards,

    Hi Yogesh,
    I have re-done the whole process and now I can see the signin URL is pointing correctly to the link without "/wordpress". But now when I try to login the login page does not go anywhere and returns back to the sign in screen.
    When I set WP_DEBUG=true I see the following text coming in the user id text box.

    Notice: Undefined variable: user_login in /var/www/vhosts/highstreetvideos.com/httpdocs/wordpress/wp-content/themes/videocrafttheme/functions/registration_panel/login.php on line 44


    Thank you.

    Regards,
    Aravind

    Hello,

    I think you need to reinstall the theme.

    Hi Yogesh,
    Is it possible to install the theme without being able to sign in ?

    Thank you.
