Apche port change

I have changed the default apche port so that I can run concurrently with IIS. All is fine but the wamp menu has all its links pointing to localhost instead of localhost:8888 where 8888 is my port number. Is there any way of modifying the menu?

I've done as following :
-In httpd.conf : roll to
------
#Listen 12.34.56.78:80
Listen 80
-----
I replace 80 with 8888 (Listen 8888) / save it / restart all (wamp5 - system tray)
and when I go to : [localhost] it " Unable to connect "
but to : [localhost] it go to my web page

In the WAMP installation folder, there is a file named 'wampserver.ini'. Before editing it, make a backup of it in case you need to go back to it.

Edit the file and locate the section [Menu.Left].

In my file, there are three places that read
... Parameters: "[localhost];

Change 'localhost' to 'localhost:8888' at each one. Save the file and exit the editor.

To make these new menu items take affect, you must restart the Wampserver application, not just Apache or MySQL. When it is running again, you should be able to select the localhost, phpadmin, or SQLLiteManager options with the desired port number.
