    why the index page not appear on the first domain page

    Hi
    I publish my site via Bluevoda FTP manager
    (I don’t built my site with Bluevoda website builder)
    The publish process go perfectly,
    I open folder and do the publish I saw my site without problems, except one thing in order to enter the site I need to type the address like this www. happinessto.com/folder
    My question is why the index page not appear on the first domain page, if I type only the domain I arrive to the index of page
    What I do wrong?
    Thanks

    Your 1st page (home page) in the public_html area must be called index as this is the 1st thing that will be looked for. With this page, directory /folder/ if you put an index page in here, you will reach it via http://www.happinessto.com/folder/

        I open folder under public_htm l publish my site to this folder but the index page don’t settle on the first page of the domain name
        When I type: www. happinessto.com

          Hi, when I go to http://www.happinessto.com I just get the cgi folder? Have you been to the public_html folder to see if your files are there, via c panel. I am not even getting anything on the http://www.happinessto.com/folder link. Remember that your files should be sent to the public_html area & not upload the whole folder.
          Regards Chris.

              Hi, Ah! I see what’s happening now. You have 2 choices & neither is good.
              Good luck.
              Regards Chris.

                  Hi Ilanit,

                  This is the address to your Kabbalah page

                  "http://www.happinessto.com/Folder/casa1.html"

                  Chris is right, you have to rename your pages to

                  "http://www.happinessto.com/index/casa1.html"

                  "public_html" is "happinessto.com"

                  "public_html/folder/ is actually the "index" in your case [your welcome page] "please enter"

                  "public_html/index/casa1.html" is your Kabbalah page

                  You also must not use CAPS for your file names. You name your index page
                  "Folder" with a capital "F".

                  My suggestion is to rename all your pages accordingly as above and then republish them to your "public_html"

                  To me your "Folder" or Welcome page is not necessary, it is not nice at all,
                  very poorly designed. Your Kabbalah page should be your "index" page.

                  Rename your page "casa1.html" to "index" and publish it to "public_html"

                  Your address will become "http://www.happinessto.com/index/"

                  Then publish all your other pages to "public_html/index/newpage.html"
                  www.siapamoyanganda.com/
                  Malaysian Family Tree Website From the
                  State of Johor.

                  HAPPY ARE THOSE WHO DREAM DREAMS AND ARE READY TO PAY THE PRICE TO MAKE THEM COME TRUE.
