Subdomain Redirect To Another Directory

[cauelt]

Hello, I want to have a directory in my account just for the subdomains redirect, something like public_html/subdomains/name_of_the_subdomain and redirect each subdomain to your directory inside this directory, for example the subdomain webmail i like to redirect to the directory public_html/subdomains/webmail

 

How I can do it?

 

Thanks,

Hello,

 

I believe that each "name fsubdomain.html or .php" will need a redirect in some form which will have to manually entered into each page. This can be done via meta refresh or javascript

Hi Abinidi!

 

I didn't understand the Jime's answer, but I think that it do not answer my question, because it envolves javascript and meta tags and my question is only server-side.

 

I will try to explain better what I want:

 

normally a subdomain is only a shortcut to a normal directory. In the TCH cPanel, when you create a subdomain, is created too a directory for that subdomain. I want use another directory for that subdomain.

 

I need a english course urgent!!

 

Thanks for the help!

Caueh,

 

I think that what you want to accomplish would be best accomplished by editing your .htaccess file.

 

Your .htaccess file allows you to change how users are redirected to various parts of your site, even such that directories shown in the URL aren't truly the ones that exist on the server.

 

I, however, am not an .htaccess guru. Maybe TCH-David or another of our .htaccess gurus can chime in to this discussion to let you know how you would modify your .htaccess file to accomplish what you are attempting to do.

 

Good luck!
