Hello,

 

i did configure a child portal ander the parent.

But this child becomes more and more important.

We access it via a different URL.

Is it possible to make this child to a parent, so we could manage it without touching the others.

 

kind regards

 

chris

technically the only difference between a childportal and a parentportal is the url: parentportals look like this: www.mydomain.com, while childportals look like this: www.mydomain.com/childportal. The only thing you need to do to make a parent portal out of a child portal is to add a fully qualified domainname to the list of http aliases of the portal (logon as host and go to admin > site settings), after you added the httpalias, visit your site on the new address...

i did this and this works fine. I am still able to use it via the http://parent/child path.

I do not want to use this former Portal (the parent) anymore may i delete this?

Is it possible to do it backwards ?

i.e. if we create parent portal on www.mydomain.com with name: www.name.com but dns is not settled yet, coud we add a new alias like www.mydomain.com/name and build it while it became available ?

Thanks

yep, remember to do it in 2 places: delete the alias in site settings, and delete the physical folder in your site root
