    Redirecting a parked domain to a website in a different directory

    Hello,
    As the title suggests i would like to learn how to point a parked domain to another website hosted in a different directory on my paid hosting server.

    Here are the circumstances, i have a paid hosting and a domain, i also got a second free domain and a second website. I would like to host the second website files in a different directory then the one in which i host my main website. Than i want to park that second free domain in this server, and make a sort of redirect to point it to that second folder. How do i do that? How do i tell that second parked domain to display files from that second directory?

    Thank you a lot.

    Hello,

    Firstly I don't think you're looking to park the domain I think you're more looking to ad an "addon domain".

    Do you have a control panel for your hosting and if so what control panel is it? ie: cPanel, eXtend (heart internet)
    If ever in doubt about a threads purpose report it and let webdev mods or admins be the judge. If we don't know we can't help.

    Hi,

    If both domains are registered with the same host, you can normally do this via your host's control panel.
    When you log in, do you see a menu point "Domains" or similar?

    If so, chances are that you can just point the domain at whatever directory you please. Simple as that.
