    Default IP Address and not domain name in URL.

    I recently realised that when I link to different pages on my site the domain name is not coming up in the URL. Instead it is the IP Address followed by the specific page information.

    If I manually type in the URL to include my domain name it links properly, but if I select another link the URL reverts back to the IP Address.

    Currently the URL reads:

    http://74.52.162.11/index.php?main_p...=10&chapter=20

    I would like this to read:

    http://www.############teacher.com/index.p...=10&chapter=20

    Thoughts?

    Thanks.

    Default Re: IP Address and not domain name in URL.

    Check your two files:
    /includes/configure.php
    /admin/includes/configure.php

    Do you have the domain name or the IP address defined in there?

    Do you have any kind of rewrites on your site?

    Has your hosting site changed anything on the server?

    Have you any redirects in your Control Panel?

    Have you anything in your .htaccess causing this?

    You're the best Linda! As always you've solved all my problems in a couple of moments.

    I recently switched servers and upgraded my copy of ZC at the same time. The new configure file had the temp. IP address as I had not redirected my DNS at the time.

    I have updated this file with the URL and removed the IP address and now it's working perfectly.

    Thanks a million!
