[Swerve1000]

Hi,

I have purchased a new domain name (.info) and am using a GoDaddy account to host it.

Currently I have a vBulletin forum on this account and the URL (.com) takes people directly to the forum index page as it should.

However, I have installed a new site for .info and it appears to be in root for the new domain (I guess this as the ftp client shows nothing in it when I connect to ftp.newdomain.info) but to access the new site I have to use:-

mysite.info/mysite/index.php

I don't want this, I want it to just be mysite.info to lead to the new site.

Can anyone help me with this please, my access to the ftp/host has been granted by my new partner, so prehaps he has set up my access incorrectly, but I just need to install the site into the root of the new .info domain.

Many thanks for any help.

This would be better in the Technical Forum

Thanks,

I have just checked the ftp client GoDaddy provides and the site was installed into a directory without the .info extension, so I changed the directories name to include the extension.

May this be the issue?

Thank you.
