  I've just moved a site from a subdomain to the root.
  
  So far I've updated the index.php file and also the settings in the control panel
  
  System->General->SiteUrl
  
  to reflect the new path of the craft directory and index.php relationship.
  
  I can access the admin backend but the actual site gives the craft styled "Page not found."
