Hi

Is it possible to make an extension page to the domain as the default or homepage but not calling it
index or default, like

discoversecretsfor.com/runners.html[/url]

eg. runners.html ?


so when someone clicks on the domain page it will automatically open the runners page as the default homepage.

Thanks for any advice

Cheers

In your .htaccess file on the server, there should be a line that says:

DirectoryIndex

And then has a bunch of filenames like (for example) "index.html" or "home.html" or whatever. This is the list of files that the web server will try to display if no filename is given in the URL, in order. So, you'd want it to look like:

DirectoryIndex runners.html index.html index.htm ... (etc)

Hope that helps!

As far as I know, you always have to make it index.html ... But interesting question!

KarateRobot I appreciate your help, though I'm not sure if I entirely understand what you're saying... are you saying you can make it something other than index.html or you can?

He is saying you can.

Add this your .htaccess in the directory you want to change:

DirectoryIndex runners.html index.html index.php

(which is what karaterobot was saying)

Yeah, that's the ticket. Sorry for confusing you. What I was trying to say was that you find that line in your file, then add runners.html before whatever is already there.
