Can I modify the URL in the notifications e-mails? (it reads localhost)
For your local EP.NET you need to change the info in your "Web.Config" file, located in your EP.NET root folder ("C:\inetpub\wwwroot\easyprojects" by default).

Open the file in any text editor, and search for the parameter called "ApplicationRoot".
Edit the info between the tags to reflect the true URL of EP.NET, as this is where the notifications look to find the info to put in the click here URL:


<ApplicationRoot>http://www.yourwebserver/yourepvirtfolder/</ApplicationRoot>




After the change, save and close the file, and the notifications should take you where you want to go.

Each time you upgrade, you will have to ensure that this info is used during setup, on the IIS configuration screen of the EP.NET setup utility - see the below screenshot.
