Re: redirects to wrong place

Not 100% sure as I cannot see you configuration file. But I am sure that in mainfile.php you have the subfolder /portal defined in the physical path. I would think that since it is defined physically it does not need to be included in the virtual path. So in mainfile.php the virtual path should be:

http://www.pug-club.com

Instead of:

http://www.pug-club.com/portal

Try and see if it works. Keep a backup of mainfile.php just in case.

HTH.

Check the file where your menu is defined, it's probably in theme.html.
Find the following line:

Quote:
class="menuTop" href="http://www.pug-club.com/portal/">Home


Try the following 2 changes to fix it:

Quote:
class="menuTop" href="http://www.pug-club.com/portal">Home


or

class="menuTop" href="http://www.pug-club.com">Home

i have tried both things... both virtual and physical bath to make the http://www.pug-club.com ... When i changed the physical ofcourse it wouldn't work at all, when i changed the virtual nothing in the website would work, and i couldn't access the admin menu... So thanks for trying but unfortunately this didn't work...

Mcdonald i found a file in portal/themes/default/theme.html and that one had
<{$xooops_sitename}> - <{$xoops_pagetitle}>

is this the one i should have changed? cause i changed this one to

<<a href="http://www.pug-club.com/portal" target="_blank" rel="external noopener nofollow">http://www.pug-club.com/portal</a>> - <{$xoops_pagetitle}>
and to
<<a href="http://www.pug-club.com/" target="_blank" rel="external noopener nofollow">http://www.pug-club.com/</a>> - <{$xoops_pagetitle}>

and nothing happened...

where is the file you were talking about??

No not that one, that one is for displaying the name of your website in the title bar of your browser.

More down you'll find where the menu items are defined.
It's approximately line 45. It also has a double // in the url what might cause the problem.

i tried mate... there is not such file, and not such line in the same file.. i searched for "menuTop" for "Home" for "my website" and there is nothing in my theme.html file

No such line anywhere... Any other suggestions?

I should tell you that I am using an old version of xoops...2.0.7 version.. i think its pretty old isn't it?

I am not sure which file it is. Theme.html is just a guess.
If you log into your website and use the 'View source' option from your webbrowser (in IE right mousebutton click) you get a coded listing of your site in which you can see the code.
You should look for a html-file where you can find this code back.

What is the name of the theme you're using?

I think upgrading to a newer version of XOOPS is recommended...

i am using the normal theme.. the default...

My friend unfortunately i cannot find the html you are talking about.. i have seen that part of the code when i went to view/source code in explorer but i can't find the html to fix the problem...

too bad cause it sounded like a good guess...
