Can I change the Site Code Name?
I used the default corporate template as a quick start at the recommendation of my trainer. I've been working on the site for a few weeks now and I've changed the site display name but the site code name is still CorporateSite. It's become very annoying. Is it possible to change this value or will that "break" things?

Thanks,
Jay

Hello Jay,


The "Site Code Name" in Site Manager --> Sites -> <edit your site> --> Site code name value is used when creating some code. This value have to be unique, without spaces and forbidden characters. This value could be changed, but you need to update all the occurrences in your code to the new value.

So if I change if it and things break I could just put it back to CorporateSite and it would be no harm, no foul? I just don't want to create an unrecoverable mess.

Hello Jay,

Yes. If you change the code name and notice odd behavior, you can put it back to CorporateSite. After you change the code name you will need to rebuild the search index.
