Short url admin login?

marsh / 2010-02-01 05:34:13   

Hi,
Is there any way to configure a short or easier admin URL to remember instead of using the long one generated by the system
sample: http://www.website.com/mysite/ndxz-studio/?a=system

Thanks

Make it a favourite, no ?

just create either a url redirect from l.yourdomain.com to ih or a sub domain to make it permanent.

you can do that in your dns records at your registrar.

  1. <a href="http://www.website.com/mysite/ndxz-studio/">login</a>

I use to type it in the post-nav

So if I type in the post-nav:
login

To call the login page will be:
http://www.website.com/mysite/login

Thanks

@marsh nope, that's just a link to make it shorter.

If you're wanting to make have a url that's simply easier to remember than yoursite.com/ndxz-studio then you could do one of the following:

create a new folder that you like the sound of... be it admin, or login or whatever.

in here create a new index.php file which has the following contents:

  1. <?=header'location: ndxz-studio'?>

Hey presto, when you head to yoursite.com/admin (or whatever you call your folder) it should send you to the ndxz-studio admin folder.

This won't work if you've changed your ndxz-studio folder name or anything like that, and you may need to add the full url to it instead of just ndxz-studio if you have any problems

Thanx jaydee, it's easy.

  1. But right code is:
  2. <?php header'Location: ../ndxz-studio'?>

maybe I've missed the point... ?
(btw I must correct myself: I don't agree with my own above post: mistyped the url, sorry)
but if you want to have a link directly pointing to your login page the easiest way is to write the following line in the pre-nav or post-nav:
<a href="http://yoursitename.com/ndxz-studio/">login</a>
(obviously yoursitename.com must be changed with your own domain name)
that's all
;-)

What I do us just adding an "admin" folder to the root with a redirect html.
It's a better experience to type: www.yourdomain.com/admin

Download that here:

OK, again, with the link, download hereAdmin

You didn't mention that people need to edit the file. Change this to your website url and location of ndxz-studio folder:

  1. <meta http-equiv="REFRESH" content="0;url=http://www.yoursite.com/ndxz-studio/index.php">

Additionally, always be careful downloading code from peoples websites - we can not verify the contents of this file at all times.
