Hard to word the question, but as i'm moving server, i have my current site up using the "real" domain, and a temporary domain on the new server, where i've installed 2.1
i've edited every reference to the domain in the conf table, and also in the conf_global.php file, but it STILL tries to log in using the 'real' domain name... am i just missing a reference or is the domain hardcoded to the install?

Does the key tell the forum where the site is?

Nobody knows this ? Maybe I'm missing an entry on where the board url is kept...
I've changed all the entires i've seen in the ibf_conf table (seems to echo whats in the ACP) and the conf file in the forum root, have i missed one...
I know you're allowed to run a test forum, do you have to download a version that doesn't have a key embedded then, as it seems to be that its hardcoded....

The only place the board URL is (other than for the uploads directory) stored is in the conf_global.php file - this is what all the links on the board follow. If this has been changed correctly then it should be fine.

Hmph, I still can't work out what the problem is..
conf_global.php states:
which is correct, but when trying to log in the forum (its turned off currently, altho i changed teh db entry from 1 to 0 on this and it hasn't turned on for some reason, the db is DEFINITELY working as i changed the desc tag on the board offline display)
*arrgh!*
conf_global.php states:
$INFO['board_url'] = 'http://www.mytempdomain.net/~swmhxc/forum';
