I've spent hours searching the forum and I'm stuck.
I originally set up my site as :
After I had it running I registered a new domain name and have the url www.newdomain.com forwarded to www.site.com/drupal.
However, When I send an email to a new user it shos the %uri as "www.site.com/drupal".
I tried changing the base url in the settings file, but when I do that the page comes up without any layout or theme background.
Is there a way of changin the data in %uri?
Thanks!

I think you just need to
I think you just need to point your domain to the folder as a server alias. Domain forwarding will always display the target path. The reason it comes with no styling when you change base_url in settings.php is that it looks in that domain.com/theme for its theme files. In short, this is not a Drupal issue but a server issue. (I know because it took me a while to comprehend this with my own various set ups.)
I see. But how do I change
I see.
But how do I change the %uri so that when it sends emails to new registants it shows the new domain?
You do that within Drupal
You do that within Drupal through admin/settings in General settings.
Where? I can't find it in
Where? I can't find it in administer > settings. It doesn't seem to exist for 4.7.7.
I have the same problem ...
three years on ... :)
Our site was set up on a demo server and has now been moved to replace the original site. The emails going out still use the old address - how do we change it to the new one?
