Upgraded to Moodle 2.4 from 2.3.3+ but Moodle banner still displays 2.3

Hi,

Here's an illustration of my problem:

My Moodle upgrade problem

I'm sure it's because I unzipped my new Moodle files into a folder named htdocs/moodle23 as that was where the original ones were, but it worked ... mostly. I've tried manually updating the config.php file but that didn't work. Is there a basic setting fix for this one I'm missing, please? Your assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Fiona

Try going to Settings>Site administration>Front page>Edit settings and change the name from Moodle 2.3 to Moodle 2.4

Mary is a star.

However, now that you know how to change your site name, do you think you might want to use a better site name instead of this boring "Moodle 2.4."  Maybe something like "Fiona Thurn's Great Courses", or a name associated with your school? smile
