Re: Sub Domain & Redirect....

Permalink
I have used Concrete to build a new site which is stored in a sub directory of my site. I bought the new domain name and have asked my Hosting Company to redirect this sub-folder to the new address. However they inform me that there is a hard coded redirect which is preventing it from happening.

I think I may need to edit my site.php file?

Here is what it currently is:

<?php 
define('DB_SERVER', 'localhost');
define('DB_USERNAME', 'davidcun_conc5');
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'cl00nb0rn1a');
define('DB_DATABASE', 'davidcun_concrete5');
define('BASE_URL', 'http://www.mymaindomainname.com');
define('DIR_REL', '/subdirectory');
define('PASSWORD_SALT', 'EzQMIZLvNko8HUeBD61mJwluinqGy3CY5bsxVTt74cS0XPRhAfgaK2pj9WrOF');
define('PERMISSIONS_MODEL', 'advanced');
?>


What do I need to change to have it display the new domain? Thanks.

No not that easy way out (no serious answer!)..use .htaccess file to rewrite the url to point to your subfolder. There are several threads about this in the forum...
