 <p>By default it is assumed that you only intend to use Code Igniter to manage one application, which you will build in your

+<code>$application_folder = "application";</code>
+
+<h2>Relocating your Application Folder</h2>
+
+<p>It is possible to move your <dfn>application</dfn> folder to a different location on your server than your <kbd>system</kbd> folder. 
+To do so open your main <kbd>index.php</kbd> and set a <em>full server path</em> in the <samp>$application_folder</samp> variable.</p>

+put all of the directories located inside your <kbd>application</kbd> folder into their
 own sub-folder.</p>
