WDL domain terms
« on: May 15, 2006, 11:38:48 AM »
Hi
If you want WDL on domains - both with and without www (i.e. www.kroghenga.no and kroghenga.no ), I suppose this is two licenses? Is that right?

I am not sure WDL supports two licenses in one install...

What I did was setup a .htaccess file so that if you attempt to access via 'www.jaxWeather.net/flash" it auto redirects to "JaxWeather.net/flash" which is what the license was issued for...

Jax,

Could you provide just a bit more information here? I'd like to do the same thing.

It depends a bit on your web host...

However my host allows full control over .htaccess files and the use of mod_rewrite and i created a simple text file and named it .htaccess  (note it must be named exactly as indicated.)

Inside it i used the following syntax...

Code: [Select]
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.jaxweather.net
RewriteRule (.+) http://jaxweather.net/$1 [R=301,L]


As I placed this at the upper level of my web root this forces anyone visiting my site using 'www.jaxweather.net' to see the address as 'jaxweather.net' instead...

Note that the syntax may be slightly different depending on host and more on this may be viewed here:
