How do I make a website mydomain.com automatically open my domain.com/a_folder when someone goes to my domain.com?
I've tried forwarding but am getting an error message.
The default settings on the server will usually disable the ability to view the contents of folders for security reasons.
As long as that's enabled, just set the folder as the default directory of the website.
Tried creating an index.html file with a redirect in it? Redirect to sub folder after 0 seconds...not the best but probably easiest to setup for ease.
I think you are looking for a 'redirect' eg http://www.webworkshop.net/auto-redirecting_methods.html
EDIT: Too slow
The quick and dirty way is to put a redirect on the home page in the root directory.
The 'correct' way is to set the home page properly in the server's settings.
"I'm getting an error" isn't very helpful on its own. The keyword there is "message".
The other question, of course, is "why would you want to"?
Thanks.
Cougar, posted from my phone with access to the error message. I'll have a look at it tomorrow.
Sorted. I was setting up a wild card redirect to a subfolder which was causing the error, got rid of the wild card and all is fixed 🙂
Thanks all
