    Use different domain for pages below a certain node

    I have a site with a content layout such as:

    Content
        www.website.com
            Public
                some content
                some more content
            Members
                some content
                some more content
            News and Events
            Who We Are
            Contact Us

     

    I want all content starting with "Members" and below to use the domain "my.website.com".  I could pull that node up to a top level however, I want it to share master template and such with the www site.

    Can this be done? and how?

    Hi Connie,

    Yes you can do this, the hierachy of your templates are not normally the same as the hierachy of your actual content.

    To make your site structure more understandable, if you are going to split the site effectively into two, I would advise moving the new top level node for your my.website.com site up to the top level.

    You then need to ensure the following:

    1) You have the DNS pointing to your server for both domain names ( www and my. )
    2) You have configured IIS to accept both as associated with this site
    3) You then need to right click each of the top level nodes and click "Manage Host Names" where you then add the appropriate host name for each of the sites, you need to remember to also select a language.

    When you have done all of the above, do a re-publish and the site should have been seperated into two, you will need to make sure you now point links from one site to the other, you might wish to setup the old structure as simple pages that do a 301 re-direct.

    Cheers,

    Chris
