How do I redirect my home page from my install directory....

Sorry if this has been posted before, I was unable to find anything about this:

I installed Serendipity to www.mydomain.com/s9y and everything is working good, but I want my blog to come up under:

www.mydomain.com

Thanks for the help.

I just created an .htaccess file on the root so one would get redirected.

I used

Code: Select all

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^$ /serendipity/
RewriteRule ^(.*) /serendipity/$1 [L]

To fool the browser that it has to look there, needs mod_rewrite and mod_rewrite support enabled in serendipity, put serendipity browser path to / and change upload path apropriatly. You do not need to change template path. And offcourse change the url to your weblog.

And what if I use IIS6? Do the standard options for mod_rewrite work on IIS?

you will need the mod_rewrite mod for iis installed.

Why don't set the correct directory for the domain?

Set www.mydomain.com to the directory you have installed s9y
