[solved]Forgot URL back office

[Cartoonkleding]

Hi

 

I had the URL of my backoffice saved in my internet browser on my old broken laptop.

 

I now have a new one and I cant access the BO because I dont know the url.

 

 

I know the URL should be something like;  www.cartoonkleding.nl/adminxxxx

 

But I can not find my admin folder in the file manager...

 

Please help. Thank you

The folder must have another name. Prestashop does not allow to use /admin. For to use back-office you need to rename it. If you forgot the name, than log with filezilla to your FTP and read the folders name there.

Hi, 

 

Thanks for your answer. Where do I find the folder in my FTP? I am in my root folder. But I dont know where to look. I have searched for a folder called admin1234 or something like that. But I cant find it. 

 

Do you know where to look? and which kind of name am I looking for? 

 

Thanks so much

1) Who installed the Prestashop for you ? If wasn't you, than ask the person who installed it for you.

2) Open all folders you have there and look for one which has the following sub-folders on it:

 

- autoupgrade

- backups

- export

- filemanager

- import

- tabs

- theme

 

If you find a folder with these sub-folders, than it is the folder/name of the back-office and you open it by: www.yourdomain.com/foldername

 

3) If these tips didn't help:

Sorry, but if you don't remember the name by looking into your FTP (this should give you a 100% chance to remember it), than there is no other way.

Thank you so much for your reply.

 

I found the folder. It was nothing like admin1234. So therefore it was hard for me to find. 

 

Because you named the things that should be in de folder, I was able to search specific for this map. 

 

I tried logging in, and it worked! 

 

You are awesome. Thank you
