Redirection and uploading

[pnagames]

i have been trying through the administration of my domain for a bit to activate the redirection i neede properly (taking customer strainght into the catalogue).

when i managed to do that the uploading stopped work.

i assume that i need to change some of my network settings to work properly.

can you please tell me which setting has to change?

If you are wanting to redirect customers from the index.html page to the shop catalogue page this is probably best done with a .htaccess file and the appropriate re-direct.

Check out http://community.actinic.com/showthread.php?t=20693 or the web for info on the .htaccess file

my problem is that i do not have any knowledge of htaccess files and i do not want to mess it up.

so i would prefer to do it through the re-direction provided by the host.

Server based re-directs are a lot more problematic as you are experiencing. Setting up a .htaccess is very straight forward - see the examples in the above link and modify for your own site. The format is simply along the lines of ...

Redirect permanent oldpage.html http://www.fancylines.co.uk/acatalog/newpage.html

Redirect = the function
permanent = type
oldpage.html = the page you want directing from
newpage = page you want directing to
