Set Home Page

Hi,
Never done this before but I was wondering how to have a home page on a DNN site (say www.xyz.com) that says has a map of the United States asking the user to select their state. Then in future the users home page would be a seperate DNN site say utah.xyz.com.

If I had to I could probable make up child sites on the 1 dnn installation but I would prefer to have totally seperate installs.

Thanks in advance

Re: Set Home Page

yoiu may, e.g. use an IIS web site with a static html page and an image map of the U.S. linking to the individual state sites, regardless how they are implemented.

Re: Set Home Page

Thanks Sebastian,

Thats a great idea but users would have to select it everytime they went to the site. I was hoping they would only have to do it initially.

Re: Set Home Page

you can store a value in a cookie for the landing site and auto-redirect everytime they return.
