I'm stumped (and so is Actinic tech support right now) over a variation of an old chestnut. I've searched through all the relevant threads, but there's still no solution, and I've run out of ideas. This is a summary of the problem:-
- this is a new site, about to launch, developed with v7.0.5 Catalog
- the development site was built at a domain in the form of "www.dev.mydomain.co.uk". The live environment is at "www.mydomain.co.uk".
- both sites/domains share a 1&1 host, in /dev and /live directories respectively.
- After backing up the finished dev site, I modified its network settings to create the live site and uploaded it to the live webspace/domain. Network settings are:-
- The live site works fine in every respect other than certain behaviour in the search results page. The "contact us" link on this page shows the URL of www.dev.mydomain... instead of www.mydomain... . A further from the search results page uses the form action of www.dev.mydomain... instead of www.mydomain...too.
- The search results page is using Act_Primary. Even when I hard code the correct full absolute URL for the "contact us" button in this template (instead of using NAVBMAILLINK), the URL on the search results page itself remains www.dev... !
- I've changed the script ID for the live site to a different one to the dev site and it makes no difference.
- I've done countless full refreshes & purges and it's made no difference.
- I've tried clearing cookies, and have used a fresh PC that's never been on the dev site before (in case cookies / sessions are the source of the problem) and that makes no difference either.
Can anyone please help? I need the site to be working properly tomorrow for its "official" launch, and time's running out...
Thanks,
Mark
