Alias

Alias or Host Header is a simple form of having access to certain contents that are physically dislocated from the main directory of the site. Next we present two examples:

In Figure 4.40 example we create a web alias for the folder /home1/_sites/www/site/img. So going to www.domain.com/es/img or www.domain.com/img will be the same.

Figure 4.40: Web Server - Alias 1

Figure 4.41: Web Server - Alias 2

In Figure 4.41 example we have a subsite called www.domain.com/forum that is present in filesystem at /home1/_sites/www/site/forum.

You can manage each alias if you click on it (Figure 4.42).
