    red flag Help Needed

    I recently purchased a domain name and dns hosting package, I am having my domain name forwarded to my new zencart website, the redirection has worked well.

    My question is when I click links on my zencart website in the bottom left of my browser it shows the old linking URL address, can anyone tell me why this occurs? Is there a way to have it show my new domain name?

    Also my browser tab comes up as my new domain name but won’t read my meta tag shop name, any info would be much appreciated.

    It sounds like your URLs are not set correctly in your configure.php file (it's in the includes folder)

    Thanks for the help Andrew,

    I live in the land down under

    I changed the define('HTTP_SERVER', to my domain and leave the trailing '/' then uploaded the config file back.

    when i go to my site i just get a blank page, so i just reloaded original file to get site back.

    at the moment i don't HTTPS on the site

    is there something i am missing or another setting i should be changing along with my adding my domain.

    been around a long time, solved a lot probs self taught, but this one has me rattled, i know it must be a simple fix.

    Andrew can you check out my new site (it is just being put together) to see better what the problem might also be

    I see what the problem is. When I try to access:

    http://www.primecutsbodybuildingdvds...index&cPath=66

    I get a 404 error; Unfortunately this is correct behavior- only your main domain name is redirected- it's virtual. I'm not saying that it cannot be done- unfortunately I don't have any answers your you. I'll check with the guys that host my site- maybe they might have a suggestion.

    Not sure why you would want or need redirection? Might be best with your Registrar, to setup your Domain name & Nameservers in the usual fashion.


    I changed the define('HTTP_SERVER', to my domain and leave the trailing '/' then uploaded the config file back.

    If I understand that statement correctly, you put a trailing '/' at the end which is incorrect. It should be:

    define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.primecutsbodybuildingdvds.com');

    Thanks Andrew,

    here is the latest sent to me from my website host serva:

    You'll fix that by instead of putting (inside your HTML source code): a href="page.html"

    You'll put: a href="http://www.primecutsbodybuildingdvds.com/page.htm"

    So you put the full path to your own domain.

    --------------------------------------------------------------

    does this fix still occur in my configure.php file? i have tried it and still get a blank page when i upload the changed file, how should the line read with the fix i recieved, see below:

    ***********/

    // Define the webserver and path parameters

    // HTTP_SERVER is your Main webserver: eg-http://www.your_domain.com

    // HTTPS_SERVER is your Secure webserver: eg-https://www.your_domain.com

    define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://bodybuildingdvd.110mb.com');

    define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://bodybuildingdvd.110mb.com');

    // Use secure webserver for checkout procedure?

    define('ENABLE_SSL', 'false');

    // NOTE: be sure to leave the trailing '/' at the end of these lines if you make changes!

    // *

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Thanks Sean
