hey.. ok i got a problem. this is the url to my homepage www.berkolli.trap17.com . i installed xoops and i want the xoops homepage ( www.berkolli.trap17.com/index) to be my index page.. how can i forward it or what do i have to do so when i type my url (www.berkolli.trap17.com) it goes to the xoops page. sorry if its confusing.. but i want to make that work if its possible. when i installed xoops, i had to make a new dir.. because it wouldnt let me install it in the root dir. any ideas?
Thanks

You could make your index page a PHP Script and use

CODE

<?php include "Path to your xoops page"; ?>

Or just an HTML redirect page:

HTML

The HTML one should go between the opening <head> and closing <head> tags. Change 1 to how many seconds you want it to redirect to that page. I think there are other ways that you could do that...I'm not sure.
That should help. I hope I answered your question right.

It' s Easy so!

1st,Just download a Xoops from another site.

2nd,to zip your xoops files to" filename.zip "

3rd,upload it to your root dir

4th,Click the file , on your right you will see the file options. to Extract it.

5th,you will see all Xoops on your root dir

6th, to change the permission of Pulic_html dir 777

7th, install the Xoops.

PS: I dont like it.....

Hmm.. Is there any way that you can get the page to refresh in a pre-determined amount of time?

That first php script is incorrect and thats why it didnt work. Its supposed to be...

CODE

<?php include ("Path to Xoops"); ?>

Also since your using PHP-Nuke now it wont work since PHP-Nuke uses alot of backend stuff plus xoops wouldnt have work either because it also uses backend and the images need to be link remotley and a hole bunch of junk that you need to do. Just isnt going to happen with php. So your best bet is to use that meta tag or the HTML that other person gave you.
