    Link to Document includes father node, not working

    Hi, I've searched all the forum for a solution, and found many topics about urlrewriting and hidetoplevelnodefrompath, but none have worked for me...

    This is the structure of my website:

    Content

    -index
    -login
    -... (etc etc)
    -newsArchive
    --news1
    --news2
    --... (etc etc)

    i have other 2nd level nodes like newsArchive, and my problem is that 3rd level nodes (in this example news1, news2) have the following "Link to Document" path: /newsArchive/news1, so generically: /2ndLevelNode/3rdLevelNode

    and they don't work. You can see it here:
    http://www.studiocgroup.eu/newsarchive/prova.aspx doesn't work
    http://www.studiocgroup.eu/prova.aspx works

    So, i fiddled with the web.config but no luck.

    This is my current situation: I have an Umbraco website with a virtual directory inside it, so I have wrapped the <system.web> and <system.webserver> tags in a <location path="." inheritInChildApplications = "false"> tag, or else my virtual directory won't open because of Umbraco.

    here you can see my web.config file: http://www.filedropper.com/web_8

    I checked my UrlRewriting.config file too, and it has no rules inside of it.

    Thanks in advance!

    Here's some update:

    I tried using a clean web.config, but there's no difference: the structure is like this

    [Content]
    -indexLink to Document: /index.aspx
    -loginLink to Document: /login.aspx 
    -newsArchiveLink to Document: /newsArchive.aspx 
    --news1Link to Document: /newsArchive/news1.aspx 
    --news2Link to Document: /newsArchive/news2.aspx

    I tried creating a test website with umbraco, and when i edit the hideTopLevelNodeFrompath it works, it hides or shows but Umbraco is able to find the page it links to EITHER WAY.
    In this website though,  it doesn't work. If i use a empty or bugged web.config he sees it and 'crashes', but he doesn't give a **** about the hideTopLevelNodeFrompath property... So the Link to Document never changes, and Umbraco doesn't find the page either way.

    PLEASE help me, it's for my company's site!

    Ooookay, so, I found the answer!

    I searched and searched and searched, until I decided to look in EVERY .config file (even if I edited just the web.config file).
    I checked /config/umbracoSettings.config, and I found this tag:

    <useDomainPrefixes>false</useDomainPrefixes>

    I changed it to

    <useDomainPrefixes>true</useDomainPrefixes>

    and voila, it worked like a charm!
