Glitch On Aws?

I've been sending my friends and clients to the Artist Web site of mine:

http://rich-franco.artistwebsites.com/

That seems to work, but when I send them through my link www.richfrancocars.com

http://www.richfrancocars.com/

This comes up, with "No Matches"!!!

Why!

It also comes up with

There are no images that matches the search term: cars and other fast means of transportation. And cars and other fast means of transportation is also in the search bar.

When you set up your masked forwarding from GoDaddy for that domain, you didn't forward to:

http://rich-franco.artistwebsites.com/

You instead forwarded to:

http://rich-franco.artistwebsites.com/art/all/cars+and+other+fast+means+of+transportation/all

Which doesn't bring up any results. You need to edit your forwarding address to one that works.

Incidentally, masked forwarding isn't something I'd recommend for use with AW sites, as it prevents the secure padlock symbol from showing up in the customer's browser when they enter their credit card details. While the site is still technically secure, this will dissuade a great many of your potential buyers from completing a purchase. You are better to either use the new domain forwarding function available in AW v2, or use a non-masked forward.

Hey Guys,

Thanks! Let me go see if I can correct it and then let you know. ALL my car stuff is in the Cars and other means of fast transportation,so I must have done that,not knowing the right way!

I think I fixed it, but now it opens to my "images", not "galleries", so my "car people" need to find the "car gallery".............

If you want to forward it to all of your galleries, you should be able to set the forwarding address to:

http://rich-franco.artistwebsites.com/index.html?tab=galleries

If you want to forward it to a specific gallery, you can set the forwarding address to:

http://rich-franco.artistwebsites.com/art/all/all/all/cars+and+other+fast+means+of+transportation

Which I think is what you were intending originally? (Those extra 'all's are important!)
