Does Powweb have any plans to let us do something like this

http://anything.yourdomain.com
http://something.yourdomain.com
http://cool.yourdomain.com

The Way it is now
http://www.yourdomain.com

Powweb has that as the default setup using the " * "(wildcard). You've always had it.

http://anything.rollercoasterpunk.com/

http://something.rollercoasterpunk.com/

http://cool.rollercoasterpunk.com/

[CoasterPunk]

ok but is there a way to make http://anything.rollercoasterpunk.com a diffrent page then http://something.rollercoasterpunk.com ?

If not will it ever? :)

[stevel]

Yes - this is called subdomains. See http://help.powweb.com/tutorials/htaccess/subdomain.php

[CoasterPunk]

So change......

RewriteEngine On
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} sub.yoursite.com
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !subfolder/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ subfolder/$1 [L]

to

RewriteEngine On
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} Forums.rollercoasterpunk.com
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !Forums/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ Forums/$1 [L]

Does it matter that I use .htaccess of my error page?

No, .htaccess can contain both subdomain redirection and customised error page instructions.

Cool but should this work? Because its not working

RewriteEngine On
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} Forums.rollercoasterpunk.com
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !Forums/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ Forums/$1 [L]

You do realize that you have Forums with a capital F. So your directory must also have a capital F. Best to leave everything in lower case.
