Auto redirect from home page to zen cart home

I want my site, when you type the URL (https://www.kings-kreations.com) to go directly to the home page of my zen cart site. Right now, there is a "splash page" and you have to click on a link to enter the zen store. I don't like that & it's an unnecessary step for the customer. Can someone tell me how to fix it (step by step and where to find the necessary folder(s), etc - I know nothing about this!) Thanks in advance!

I know...I've posted a question on how to resolve that issue, too. I'll bump this after I get the other issue resolved. Thanks, anyway!

Re: Auto redirect from home page to zen cart home

This is an old thread, but goes back to a problem I have yet to resolve.

My site is https://www.kings-kreations.com, but the customer has to click on one of the links on the splash page to actually enter the store. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Re: Auto redirect from home page to zen cart home

Pretty simple, really.

This tutorial shows how, but it's mostly just moving all your Zencart files and folders to the root of your site (and removing the splash page) and editing the two configure.php files in admin/includes and in includes to remove references to the zen directory from the paths.
