Omg i know an answer! I think

Edit your .htaccess file and put in the following.

Code:

Redirect permanent /index.html http://www.example.com/home.php

Change .htacccess file in x-cart root to:

DirectoryIndex home.php

DO NOT use a redirect - use dalmuti's suggestion instead Also, please be sure to update your forum signature per the forum guidelines. Thank you

delete the index.html and it will go there anyway.

index.html is a waste of time as its basically a splash page

Yea, but it goes through index.php if you do that and adds a session id to the url - bad for SEO. You want to go directly to home.php, bypassing both index files.

its mad isnt it that we should even be having this debate as xcart is over 7 years old and still has these basic flaws.

you would think that seo was a new thing

Yea, we'll see what they have done with 4.2
