I apologize, the keyword bit is what I consider a part of the static url, so for me that was "understood"
anyways, i'm not concerned about home.php as-is, seems it would be more trouble than needed to rewrite home.php, so that will be a "not-anytime-soon" feature
@Jerrad: my htaccess has
Code:
DirectoryIndex home.php index.php index.html
Which works for me. Additionally, I do not have any index file in my x-cart main folder. Seems to me like you have a redirect setup, because if I visit leukstewinkel.nl/shop/, I get redirected to leukstewinkel.nl/shop/home.php
EDIT: the appropriate functionality should be that the /shop/ url should show up, without needing to display the home.php part (tho again, if x-cart mentions home.php, users/search engines will still hit home.php directly at some point)
