[Solved] Hide ip address of website and location of subfolder of prestashop.

[phonestreet]

when I go to my domain it directs to a subfolder within my hosting. I have used .htaccess to do this.

 

However say if I go to my website:

 

www.mywebsite.co.uk

 

It shows up as:

 

http://77.45.75.191/...ame/prestashop/

 

Which is then shows index.php of prestashop. How would I hide the details so it only shows:

 

http://www.mywebsite/index.php and then any categories or links they use after that.

 

The current code that I am using is:

 

 

 

# Do not change this line.

 

RewriteEngine on

 

# Change yourdomain.com to be your primary domain.

 

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?mywebsite$

 

# Change 'subfolder' to be the folder you will use for your primary domain.

 

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/prestashop/

 

# Don't change this line.

 

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

 

# Change 'subfolder' to be the folder you will use for your primary domain.

 

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /prestashop/$1

 

# Change yourdomain.com to be your primary domain again.

# Change 'subfolder' to be the folder you will use for your primary domain

# followed by / then the main file for your site, index.php, index.html, etc.

 

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?mywebsite$

RewriteRule ^(/)?$ prestashop/index.php [L]

Dude, I offer to you put presta in root folder or create subdomain..don't do this crap width subfolders...also generate default .htaccess from prestashop BO.

I have made a sub domain and when you go to it (where it has been directed to) it still shows the full server ip and path directories.

I found out what to do.

 

Go to Back office then preferences. From there hit SEO&URLs...if you have your server ip in there you must delete it and replace it with your domain name.
