Can the access to the backend use a different URL

Hi, this may be an obvious question but can the path to the CMS be a different name rather than the default domain.com/perch to something like domain.com/{custom folder name}

I know we can remove the Perch branding from within the CMS which is a great feature but the path to the admin is the only ref to Perch which we would like to change.

Thanks Andrew

Hi, yes, you can change the name of the Perch folder, here's some info on what you'd need to do: https://docs.grabaperch.com/perch/configuration/path/

Cool, so looking at my config file it should just be define('PERCH_LOGINPATH', '/perch'); that I need to change?

Yes. That will do it.

That's right. That and changing the name of the actual Perch folder.
