changing the web address but not the root directory

changing the web address but not the root directory

Sorry if the title isn't descriptive of what I want to do.

I have (and have always had) moodle in its own directory (public_html/moodle).

This makes the domain:
http://domain.com/moodle/

I want to have the domain be just:
http://domain.com/

...but I still want all core files to be in their own directory (public_html/moodle) and not at the root level (public_html).

For Wordpress, this is simple to do: move index.php and .htaccess from the wordpress folder back to the root directory. Then open the index.php file and change require('./wp-blog-header.php'); to require('./wordpress/wp-blog-header.php');

Is a similar option available to moodle?

Hi Steven,

You could try creating an SSI index.shtml page with this one line placed in the body of the page, and upload to your root directory...

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" dir="ltr" lang="en" xml:lang="en">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />

<title>Moodle</title>

</head>

<body>

<!--#include virtual="/moodle/index.php" -->

</body>

</html>
It's similar to putting Moodle in a frame.

Mary

Hi Steven,

You could set up a re-direct in the .htaccess file (located in the public_html directory), as described in this post: http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=113576#p498835

Thanks, Mary and Muyiwa.

I suspected there was something to do with the .htaccess file. I'll give your suggestions a try when I can find some time. 微笑
