Hey

Is it possible to change the startpage of my webpage gallery... Now it starts coming up with index.php, when I'm typing www.mysite.com on the browser... I want to have the browser to show mysite.php as a startpage instead of index.php... Is that possible? I know how to change it fast, but then everything else is still the same...

Rename index.php to something else (e.g. gallery_index.php) and then rename your strtpage (mysite.php) to index.php

[Joachim Müller]

or (if your webhost allows you this) re-assign the index file for the folder coppermine resides in to your splash page.

Sami if I do that, then I also have to change the menu links right?

GauGau I don't understand what you mean? Can you explain it, or can you code it  for me If I post the index.php file inside here?

I will recommand u the best way to do this.

Create ur own homepage then save it with filename index.shtml

and upload it simply to ur website

I did the same in my site of hotels

check this same http://www.b4uhotels.com/ is equal to http://www.b4uhotels.com/index.shtml

while check this http://www.b4uhotels.com/index.php

both are index file but servers gives priority to index.shtml rather than index.php


Enjoy the trick

Its my first support effort to coppermine forum and hope i will do the same support in future too..
i will try for best answers

Thanks!

@gelaskimgel: Right

[gelaskimgel]

b4uphotos that is very smart trick but I've got a problem, because mysite.php file includes php programming language and that will not work in shmtl file type.

[Joachim Müller]

Ask you webhost what other extensions are allowed then and have precedence over index.php, or use the splash page method I suggested.

Couldn't mysite.php be listed as the index file? There's support for default.whateverextension
