Car not starting with key

Hi,battery warning light came on Sunday afternoon,luckily not far from home.Car would still start when I got home.Would not start on Monday to go to garage to get new alternator fitted.Bump started car,got to garage just as alternator started smoking.New alternator fitted but will not start by key,have to use wire where starter relay is after turning on ignition.Once running everything works as it should and no warning lights or messages.Have played moving the relays about and checked all fuses twice.Has any body got any ideas what it could be PLEASE. Ps.ignition lights do not dim on final stage of ignition start sequence
