Default Ye Olde Rocket Forum Domain

I now have a domain name for YORF. You can now get to this site by going to www.oldrocketforum.com. The original way of getting here by going to http://forums.rocketshoppe.com will always continue to work as well. I just find it easier going to a regular website address vs a sub-domain address. If you do start using the method of going to www.oldrocketforum.com, you'll need to re-login to the forum.

If you setup a "301" redirect from www.oldrocketforum.com to http://forums.rocketshoppe.com, then visitors won't have to re-login.

You can add something like to following to your .htaccess file:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} oldrocketforum.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://forums.rocketshoppe.com/$1 [L,R=301]

Or .. if you want oldrocketforums.com to be the "standard" URL, use:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^forums.rocketshoppe.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^oldrocketforum.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.oldrocketforum.com/$1 [L,R=301]

Thanks for the tip, Roger. I'll play with that later and see how it works.
