Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted March 20, 20187 yr Hi everyone. I want use a gateway under your suite root, but page the support https://invisioncommunity.com/4guides/suite-applications/pages/tips-tricks/advanced-using-pages-under-your-community-root-r244/ is not working. No one accidentally left the code that must be entered in the constants.php. Thank You!
August 3, 20195 yr Was just trying to find out how to set this up as well and can't find the guide. Anyone have the answer?
August 5, 20195 yr This functionality is no longer available. If you wish for your site root to use Pages, install the community software in your site root and set Pages as the default application. All other applications will be available under dedicated subfolders like /forums and /gallery.
August 5, 20195 yr So your saying move the /forums folder to the root? Everything is working great, just want to move away from our static html page biased website.

August 6, 20195 yr That's actually perfect. If you move the content of your /forums folder to the root, and then make Pages the default application, then your Forums will be available at /forums ... i.e. no URL changes at all will occur as far as spiders and end users are concerned.

That's good to know! In my case, my forum URL is forum.watmm.com and I wanted to start using Pages with the main page being watmm.com and have the forums at watmm.com/forum - is it still the case of moving the IPS install from inside /forums to the root (and of course changing the config)?
August 7, 20195 yr Yes, that's correct. The default app (in your case Pages) takes the root address and the other ones are found at /forums, /gallery, /store etc.
August 7, 20195 yr Just to be clear - forums will be at "/forums" not at "/forum". But otherwise, yes.
