    How to REBUILD Channel Links

    I have changed the name of some of the Channels but the LINK to that Channel still has the old name.
    Is there a way to regenerate or rebuild all of the Channel links?

    None of the forum tools seem to work.

    You could use the tools.php in the "Do not Upload" Folder. There is a rebuild nodes in it. BUT attention, you have to try it at a testserver first and you will lost your google ratings if you don't redirect it.

      The URLs can be updated in site builder editing the page and saving, there is a box where the URL can be changed.

        I cannot see how to change the URL anywhere. Title, but not URL.

          It is as per the screenshot below. You have to edit the page, then click save without changing anything.

            Are there any instructions on how to install and use the tools.php ?

              How to get to that place? I have EDIT SITE on from front end but cannot see that same screen you have.
              In fact, the vBulletin online manual shows the same thing I am seeing, you can only create, delete, rename, move around, but no URLs.

                Edit Site > Edit Page.

                    As I mentioned, you need to click 'Save Page' at the top and it will take you to the screen I am referring to.

                        You have to upload the install folder to core/ (upload-folder) and the tools.php to core/admincp/
                        Then you could enter the tools.php with yourdomain.com/core/admincp/tools.php

                        But like I mentioned before... test everything. Not do it in Live at first step!
