  • add on domain & publishing

    OK, it's a rocky start for me.

    I initially signed up with greenlightaustin.com as my domain of choice. After building the site, I decided to keep my original & already established domain of greenlightlocating.com. I transferred the domain over to Voda.

    How do I publish everything to greenlightlocating.com & leave greenlightaustin.com out of the equation? Is it easy?

    I went to addon domains & added greenlightlocating.com, but when I look at it in ftp manager / ftp accounts, it shows as greenlightlocating@greenlightaustin.com (public_html/greenlightlocating)

    What have I done, how do I undo it, and what are my options?

    I tried publishing, and I get:

    is that just b/c i've just published it? Does it take 24 hours?

    Your main page must be index.html.

      My main page is saved as "index" in Blue Voda.

      Are you saying that, from what you're seeing, I haven't named/saved it correctly?

        The one called 'index' .. also .. make sure the format of the page is .html in the Page Properties when you open your document and right click.

          They're all that way (html). Index.html, as seen in that screen shot, is just for illustration; it didn't exist previous to that.

          I appreciate the effort to help.

          Assuming that's not my problem, anyone have any other suggestions?

            Hi, I would go into control panel, file manager and delete those two files from the folder of your add on domain, then you need to name save and publish your page as index - index only ... not index.html - by default your .bvp file will publish as a .html file ... don't use the .html in the name of the file

              All,

              Sorry, the illustration of index.html vs index in my Voda files is doing me more harm than good. I never had a file loaded like that, I simply copied my index file, renamed it for a visual aid.

              Thanks though.

                Yes, but the screenshot of your parent directory is not showing us that an index page has been published ... your add on shows as being on your voda servers, however, your index page is not showing, have you published an index page to public_html/greenlightlocating ??

                  Re: add on domain & publishing

                  I'm not sure. I think the majority of my quandry is that I signed up w/ greenlightaustin.com, then decided to go w/ greenlightlocating.com; I'm not sure if there's a sub folder, a different root directory, or another IP that I'm supposed to be using.

                  You're saying that if I've published it, it would no longer be in the folder which I've shown in the screen shot?

                  Dang, I'm really confused.

                  I tried to remove it and reinstall it:


                  When I finished, I got this:

                    Okay ... let me try

                    First question I should ask is, have you asked voda host to remove your greenlightaustin domain from your account? I am assuming you have not .. and you shouldn't anyway, as you can always use this domain name as a pointing name to your new one, at least while the year lease on the domain name is in effect ...

                    Your new domain, greenlightlocating is pointing to your voda servers and looks like it has been added correctly as an add on domain.

                    Now you need to publish that file named index, that I see in the screenshot, publish it from your blue voda webbuilder to public_html/greenlightlocating directory - this is the directory for this domain ...

                    You use the same ip address and passwords

                    We can talk about what you can do with the index file of your main domain after you get this sorted ...

                      Don't be nervous .. try publishing that index to public_html/greenlightlocating (you have to actually type that domain name after public_html in the publishing area in blue voda)
