How to enable a splash page before loading tradingeye index.php file

August 18th, 2008

A lot of people installed Tradingeye on the root: http://www.domain-name.com/index.php and they want to create a splash page with a link to their shop. How to do it?
[ad#ad-1]
You need to create an index.html file as below:
[sourcecode language='html']




Welcome to my homepage
Click here to my shop


[/sourcecode]

You should rename “index.htm” to “index.html” if you have one, as the server will load index.html before index.htm.

Also, you can edit the .htaccess file by adding this line

RewriteRule ^(/)?$ index.html

Above

RewriteRule ^index(/)?$ index.php

That line tells apache to look at index.html first when user type your homepage http://www.domain-name.com
