Unfortunately my Domain Name Provider's web forwarding service is restrictive to say the least and I have found that the only way to get around this is to use a dynamic DNS service to help with my website redirection to allow me to host subdomains.

I then found I also have a problem with the XOOPS 2.3.3 CMS. The domain names I have used are fictitious as I still want the sites to remain priate until I have got them up and running. The setup is as follows:
Main Domain Name: http://paul.tandt.co.uk
Dynamc DNS Name: http://my.dns.pointer.org

Due to the restrictions on my Main Domain redirection. something like "http://paul.tandt.co.uk/themes/default/icons/favicon.ico" does not work however "http://my.dns.pointer.org/include/xoops.js" does work.

The result is that the opening page of the website and the home page once signed in have got little/no formatting although the Admin pages work fine. I have taken an extract from the sources of the opening page and the Admin page.

Extract from Opening Page



















Extract from Administration Menu

« Home Page  | Control Panel Home  | XOOPS » I have looked at the theme page and taken an extract of this: What I would like to know is how can I change things like xoAppUrl, xoImgUrl and any other similar variables to use the value of XOOPS_URL set in the mainfile.config Any help would be appreciated Xavi 2 Re: Standardising URL formats - Help required 2009/4/26 10:46 Xavi_R Just popping in Posts: 8 Since: 2008/3/20 Oh! Before anyone tells me to change my DNS provider, I am trying to avoid that as much as I can for personal reasons. 3 Re: Standardising URL formats - Help required 2009/4/26 11:01 trabis Core Developer Posts: 2269 Since: 2006/9/1 1 File you're looking is class/smarty/xoops_plugins/compiler.xoAppUrl.php which has a dynamic way to find the url But, you can replace <{xoAppUrl backend.php}> with <{$xoops_url}>/backend.php With $xoops_url you are sure to use the url defined in mainfile.
