@cwbuff,

Renaming the site in Local doesn’t change anything other than the name of the site in Local so it’s safe 🙂.

If you wish to change the site path, you can either:

1. Export and re-import the site to a different location
2. Use the [Volumes add-on](https://github.com/getflywheel/local-addon-volumes) to remap/relocate the site’s folders
