Hello,

How can I set www.eforums.co.cc/portal.php as the homepage so when you visit www.eforums.co.cc the portal page will show up.

Regards,
George.

Try creating a .htaccess file with just this code:

DirectoryIndex portal.php

Another way is to just create an index.html file with this code:

<meta HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" content="0; url=http://www.eforums.co.cc/portal.php">

Either one you use, place it in the root folder where portal.php & index.php are located afterwards and test it out.

Adding...

DirectoryIndex portal.php

...to .htaccess will work - it doesn't need to be the only code though.

Worked, thanks.

This type of thing happens too often; I suggest making a sticky thread explaining how to do this.

That's what Search is for.

Yeah, but it is easier to sticky it.

Yeah, that way people don't have to research hundreds of posts just to get what they're looking for.

Exactly

If they made a sticky for every frequently asked question it would look a mess, the whole of page 1 would be stickies. Perhaps 1 sticky with answers to numerous frequently asked questions would be better.
