Point a domain to a certain folder

tomharto · 09-06-2012, 08:33 AM

I'm not sure if this is apache or not so if not please tell me where I should post this

.

Using the windos hosts file I've made it so if I go to www.forum.com it shows my root localhost folder, however I'd like it to show a certain sub folder.

Is there a way with I can make apache look what the domain is, and if its forum.com use the sub folder as the default folder it uses?

EDIT:

I've just found and tried adding

Code:

<VirtualHost *>
ServerName www.forum.com
DocumentRoot "C:/Websites/Dropbox/NAPF"
</VirtualHost>

And that seems to work

If you wanted you could always change the directory index. So whenever you go to www.forum.com it will go to the files you specify.

Code:

DirectoryIndex subfolder/this.html index.html

If subfolder/this.html doesn't exist it will go to index.html in the root folder instead.
