ReDirect to home.php

[kenerly]

I would like to redirect my users to home.php instead of index.php. Like you would do if running a portal. What is the best way to do this.

Thanks

[pascal24]

in .htacces (just the forumroot)

2 lines beneath the last line,
add:

Code: Select all

DirectoryIndex home.php

[kenerly]

Code: Select all

<Files "config.php">
Order Allow,Deny
Deny from All
</Files>

<Files "common.php">
Order Allow,Deny
Deny from All
</Files>

DirectoryIndex home.php

Here is my modded .htaccess file, but is not working. Still going to index.php

[pascal24]

My bad,

this should work:

Code: Select all

DirectoryIndex home.php index.php index.html index.htm

instead of what I first had...

it would help if we knew where you are trying to do this.

what do you want to be redirected from ?

please explain exactly what you are trying to do.

Using the .htaccess file pascel posted works for http://christiangamers.net/network making the user direct to home.php as the main (home) page of the forum.

Now I need to set it where after someone registers or logs in or out (using ucp.php) they are directed to home.php and not index.php.

I have not tested this, work from copies to be safe.

open ucp.php in your text editor only.

find every instance of "redirect" if it says to redirect to index change that to home
save and upload and test.
