Just hope it helps out...

Well, for experienced programmers is piece of cake, common mortals have to wait a little more...

Hi,

If I want to redirect one domain (www.xxx.lt) to one page of CMSMS and another (www.xxx.eu) to another page of CMSMS should I applay all your patch or can applay just part of it?

Hello, it really depends... if that is it then yes... part will work just fine... in fact all you need to do is the .htaccess change and the config change and that is it... but if you want any CMSMS created links .... ie menu selflink etc.... you'll need to do more.. hard coding the links free you from all steps but the very first two of the config and .htaccess. 


Let me know if that clears it up... I probably need to do a new version of the write up... under one, as the subdomain and mulity domains are based on the same ideas but are split in to two posts... I'll see what I can do to make things clear.

Cheers

Here is an update... this is base on the Google docs.  that will pick up the subdomain traffic correctly for

Code: Select all

{assign var=UA_Google value=''} 
{foreach from=$TLDs key=tdlsI item=tdlsIv}
                {if $CurrentTLD eq $tdlsI} 
                               {assign var=UAGoogle value=$tdlsIv}
                {/if}
  {/foreach}



{literal}<__script__ type="text/javascript">
var gaJsHost = (("https:" == document.location.protocol) ? "https://ssl." : "http://www.");
document.write(unescape("%3Cscript src='" + gaJsHost + "google-analytics.com/ga.js' type='text/javascript'%3E%3C/script%3E"));
</__script>
<__script__ type="text/javascript">
var pageTracker = _gat._getTracker("{/literal}{$UAGoogle|replace:"XX":"-"}{literal}");
pageTracker._initData();
pageTracker._setDomainName(".{/literal}{$MAINdomain}{literal}.{/literal}{$CurrentTLD}{literal}");
pageTracker._trackPageview();
</__script>{/literal}

so what different...

I added this line... pageTracker._setDomainName(".{/literal}{$MAINdomain}{literal}.{/literal}{$CurrentTLD}{literal}");

Now you'll get the most out of your SEO work for user tracking. I'll tied all this in a wiki style write-up in a bit...

note you need to have my suggestion of a {global_content name='_domainRealization'} up todate ...

Thanks for your help.
Page structure:

1. page1
2. page2
3. page3
4. EN
4.1 page1
4.2 page2
4.3 page3

My .htaccess:

Code: Select all

Options -Indexes
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On

# Might be needed in a subdirectory
RewriteBase /

# URL Filtering helps stop some hack attempts
#IF the URI contains a "http:"
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} http\: [OR]
#OR if the URI contains a "["
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} \[ [OR]
#OR if the URI contains a "]"
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} \] [OR]
#OR if the URI contains a "<__script__>"
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (\<|%3C).*script.*(\>|%3E) [NC,OR]
#OR script trying to set a PHP GLOBALS variable via URL
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} GLOBALS(=|\[|\%[0-9A-Z]{0,2}) [OR]
#OR any script trying to modify a _REQUEST variable via URL
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} _REQUEST(=|\[|\%[0-9A-Z]{0,2}) 
RewriteRule ^.*$ - [F,L] 
# END Filtering

# CMSMS Rewriting
# Set assume mod_rewrite to true in config.php and clear CMSMS cache
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ index.php?lapas=$1 [QSA]
# END CMSMS

config.php:

Code: Select all

<?php
$config['process_whole_template'] = true;
$config['output_compression'] = false;

$config['root_url'] = 'http://' . $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'];
if(isset($_SERVER['HTTPS']) && $_SERVER['HTTPS']=='on')
{
$config['root_url'] = str_replace('http','https',$config['root_url']);
}
$config['use_smarty_php_tags'] = false;

#Automatically assign alias based on page title?
$config['auto_alias_content'] = true;

#------------
#URL Settings
#------------

#Show mod_rewrite URLs in the menu? You must enable 'use_hierarchy' for this to work for modules
$config['assume_mod_rewrite'] = true;

#Extension to use if you're using mod_rewrite for pretty URLs.
$config['page_extension'] = '';

$config['internal_pretty_urls'] = false;

$config['use_hierarchy'] = true;

$config['query_var'] = 'lapas';

$config['locale'] = '';

$config['default_encoding'] = '';
$config['admin_encoding'] = 'utf-8';

$config['old_stylesheet'] = false;


?>

ok... you want to add this to your .htaccess

# example.com to www.example.com  force -- to insure URL integrity
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(example\.com)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.%1/$1 [R=301,L]

# second domain and page alias for its domain root
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} example\.tdl [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/$
RewriteRule .* /tdl

# subdomain hanlding for both
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.example.tdl
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ([^.]+)\.example.tdl
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ %1

I will push the www rule if you use the subdomain... Also ... I don't use the Options +FollowSymLinks thou I'm not sure if it'll make a dif...

try those and
thou it will still (mostly) work the way you have it... I go

1. lt
1.1 page1
1.2 page2
2. EN
2.1 page1
2.2 page2
2.3 page3

then you share the rest not in a domain depent area... it helps guard against cross content and content doubling... You want to think of them like folders... folders and pages at the same time 

Hope that helps

JeremyBASS,
thank you for your time, but my English is not so good to understand you. I will try to solve the issuse by myself.

Mostly... it's your .htaccess file... you'd want to place what I posted in there.. start with the red and add the others as needed...

Sorry to say but I don't think you should have ever started this ...

Gotcha, eventually. The script in red did the trick. Thank you for your patience and help.
