    Default domain name change

    if i wanted to change my domain name what would be involved?
    i looked in the wiki but dont see anything on this subject.

    i would like to change my domain name and remove the old domain name completely.
    right now i have no customers and 0 page rank so thats not important at the moment.
    some of my site has been indexed if that matters?
    i dont know what files i would need to change or what else needs done to reflect the new name and not break my current store.

    i really dont want to start from scratch but will if i have to.

    my hosting company said they can set my new domain as the primary but it might break my store.

    Just skip the parts that don't apply. You are not changing servers so, ignore all that changing to a new server stuff (FTP file uploads, Database moving, etc...) So all you need to change is this:

    PHP Code:
      define('HTTP_SERVER''http://www.yourservername.com');
      
    define('HTTPS_SERVER''https://www.yourservername.com');
      
    define('ENABLE_SSL'false);
      
    define('HTTP_COOKIE_DOMAIN''www.yourservername.com');
      
    define('HTTPS_COOKIE_DOMAIN''www.yourservername.com');
