Hi there,

A few weeks ago I have set up a website as a subdomain under an excisting website. This week I moved the subdomain to a new domain so it becomes a main domain. I have changed the dns, iss settings, etcetera. Now the website loads normally and the top menu items points to the correct URL's but the menu on the left points to the old subdomain URL's. The old URL is jinjin.bestfreshgroup.com, the new one is www.jin-jin.net.

I am almost completely new to DNN and asp and have searched the internet and found something about changing Portal Aliases. There indeed I found a few http aliases pointing to the old subdomain. I deleted those and added the new one(s). Then I restarted the application in Host settings (it clears the cache I read somewhere) and restarted the ISS of the domain. But this all did not change anything.

Does anybody know what I am doing wrong? The URL you can check is www.jin-jin.net and click on one of the menu items on the left and you will see what I mean.

Thanks.

you need to adjust domain address in the database, table portalAlias for the site. this is required by DNN to route properly in multiportal scenarios.

Thanks for the quick reply. The domain address in portalAlias was already correct (new domainname). Isn't this table the same as Portal Aliases in the admin site settings?

Any other suggestions?

it looks like the menu on the left is part of the content (strangely, a single HTML module seem to be used for menu and content together - not what I'd expect in a CMS) and links are inserted fully qualified instead of domain relative. you need to edit the content of the module (carefully, not to destroy the design) and in source view remove "http://jinjin.bestfreshgroup.nl" from the beginning of each url.

Found it. Thanks a lot.

This template is being used for almost all of our companies now but for this company they quickly needed a menu on the left and this is how they created the menu. It should be a temporary solution but often temporary will be perminent I am afraid. Also, my knowledge is still very limited so if you have any ideas to create a menu on the left side in this template that would be great but if not then also ok of course.

One other question. I need to make the website multi language but I found out that this template doesn't show the flags when the installed languages are enabled. The default template does show the flags. Is there a simple way to get them to show in my template as well?

Thanks again.
