Hi,
I have set up my Newspaper 6 site on http://www.t-i.no
Now I would like to have exact same and identical site on http://www.treningsindustrien.no
I would be OK if http://www.treningsindustrien.no leads to http://www.t-i.no, as long as functionality dosen´t suffer.
Can anyone please help me? We’re getting press on it tomorrow and I would love for it to work.
Thanks – Jamie
Hello,
If you create a redirect from one to another there should be no problems at all. If this is the same exact site and not a totally different project, it should be OK by the licence.
Thank you!
Hi Bogdan,
Thank you for your help.
Do you know how I can set up this redirect? I am new to all of this.
It is the exact same identical site, just two URLs leading to the same site.
Appreciate your help.
Kind Regards, Jamie
Hello,
The simplest way you can do it is to create a 301 redirect in your htaccess file and simply redirect one link to another so both those links will go to your homepage.
Please follow this guide:
http://www.rapidtables.com/web/dev/htaccess-redirect.htm
You can also do a google search for 301 redirects for more info.
Thank you!
Also note most web server control panels now allow you to setup a redirect in the domain/hosting setting. This sets a site wide 301 redirect to new domain. This is commonly built in now to many panels (e.g., Plesk) so that you can control trademark domains/domain changes, and parallel domains (e.g., like we have send2.press redirects to send2press.com, etc.). 🙂
Some panels also allow you to create aliases for the landing domain, and then the duplicate domain points to same IP in the nameserver/DNS setup.
You might ask your web host about this, assuming both domains are on same server.
Additionally, many name registrars also allow you to do this so you don’t even need to have the redirect domain hosted anywhere at all — meaning, no hosting, no account, no htaccess; simply the domain itself redirects to the new domain at registar level (GoDaddy, etc. have this feature).
Anyway — food for thought (we have trimmed our domains from 850 to 250, but still you should see my Excel spreadsheet on this … ugh!!!)
The server control panel had a function for redirecting. I use http://www.one.com.
It took 15 sec to set it up, and now it works. Seems load time is a little longer, but works for now.
Appreciate the help- thanks!
