    Default Re: root directory

    I'm afraid that this a back to your host issue.

    From the public side of your server I can see that the URL I would expect to use to access your Zen Cart dynamically in your site's root (http://delightfullyxquisite.com/index.php) doesn't, and the static location to which sites redirect when there's a problem (http://www.delightfullyxquisite.com/nddbc.html) isn't there either.

    This could mean that:
    1. public_html isn't your site root (unlikely)
    2. that your site isn't in public_html (but you've already told us it is)
    3. there is some redirection and/or URL re-writing going on in the site root
    Unfortunately, although 3. is the most likely scenario, we can't see what's happening from the public side of your site (which from a security perspective, is a good thing).

    Ok so what would be the way to approach this or find out because when I have my shop the way I want it which is soon I will be wanting it to show up on www.delightfullyxquisite.com
    the page that shows up there is in a folder called rvsitebuiler not in public html but in same folder thats it is in side by side, if that makes sense so in simplistic terms if I delete rvsitebuilder will zen cart show up?

    This is more evidence suggesting the presence of redirection in your hosting account. You will need to turn that off to achieve what you're after, but how is not something that I can tell from looking at your site form the outside.

    However, I can be reasonably confident that deleting the destination to which your account is re-directed is unlikely to help.

    Default Re: root directory

    I deleted my old HTML site and now am trying to run strictly from Zen Cart, but now my domain (janaygreen.com) just shows the dir folder "catalog". I don't know how to get it to just go to the catalog without changing the home page to janaygreen.com/catalog.

    It was working before just going to janaygreen.com. Any suggestions?

    Move all the folders and files from /catalog to the root directory (usually public_html) and follow the directions in https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/i...hp?article=122
