Thanks Luke, but I am don't understand the site's config/site.php. I'm unable to find it in the search engine.

Any further assistance you could offer?

You need access to your server files.

Look for the folder 'config', then edit site.php.

Use server control panel or an FTP program or ask your hosing provider to help you.

Just to add to 55webdesign's reply... the 'site.php' file will look something like the example below. Then as per the 'how to' I mentioned earlier, copy the code line:

define('EMAIL_DEFAULT_FROM_ADDRESS', 'myaddress@example.com');

...and add the code into your 'site.php' file, obviously changing the 'myaddress@example.com' to your own preferred email address. This will then override the default concrete5 'from' email address.

The 'config' folder will have to be accessed via FTP or accessing the installation folders and files through CPANEL.

If you are nervous about editing the file just make a copy of the original 'site.php' file so that you can revert back to it if there is a problem.

Hope this helps.


<?php

define('EMAIL_DEFAULT_FROM_ADDRESS', 'myaddress@example.com');

define('DB_SERVER', 'localhost');
define('DB_USERNAME', 'etc...');
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'etc...');
define('DB_DATABASE', 'databasename...');
define('BASE_URL', 'http://etc...');
define('DIR_REL', '/etc...');
define('PASSWORD_SALT', 'etc.. etc...');
