Did you create the WILDCARDS needed for the subdomains to actually work? 😉
see this the problem,
I went in my go daddy account -> DNS Manager -> A host -> host= “*” , points to = “my IP address”
but my page still does not display
but I think I found the problem, I sub-folder callded capitalfortunes.
because I created another sud-domain in wordpress called test3.
then I went to my godaddy account and created a subfolder called test3
can u let me know if u agree
No, do not make the subfolders.
I went in my go daddy account -> DNS Manager -> A host -> host= “*” , points to = “my IP address”
Do you have a dedicated IP address with godaddy? You need it for it to work there. they need to set up the wildcard host as well.
Yes I do have a dedicated ip address. So I have to tell them to set up wildcard host.
so right now my DNS manager looks like this
Host Points to
* 188.121.59.128
So I have to tell them to set up wildcard host.
then wat happens? wat do I do next (sorry this thing is making me feel think)
No, just ask them to set up wildcard subdomains.
I ask them (this all new to me)
also just another quick question
I have a joomla site call
http://www.privatemortgages.co/
now wat i want to do is (using the network subdomain/ sub-dir and the mapping plugin) direct it to this
http://www.privatemortgages.co/NEWS
do think it’s possible
Are you switching from the joomla site to wordpress? then yes, you can do that.
No im trying to mix it together,
so i have joomla as my main page, but I have a link to go to blog
http://www.privatemortgages.co/ (joomla)
(joomla site) (wordpres)
http://www.privatemortgages.co/ News
so I would create a sub-domain / sub-dir called
news.example.com / example.com/news (using the mapping tool)
map to
(joomla site) (wordpres)
http://www.privatemortgages.co/ News
ps where do I send the flowers and box of choc, as thanks for helping every1
Ok thanks for that tip but I am just wanna clarify on some thing
if I create another domain call capitalfotunesBlog.com and create subdomain or subdir
privatemortgages.capitalfotunesBlog.com / capitalfotunesBlog.com/privatemortgages
example00.capitalfotunesBlog.com, capitalfotunesBlog.com/example00
example01.capitalfotunesBlog.com, capitalfotunesBlog.com/example01
use the Mu Mapping to
http://www.privatemortgages.co/News
also create an empty folder in sub-dir in http://www.privatemortgages.co – called News (so it can splash the page)
do u think that will work
