Question
Currently, any user who goes to mywebsite.org automatically sees the "Main" web. Is there a way to configure TWiki so that they see "MyWeb" instead of the Main web? I would like to do this INSIDE of TWiki- I'm trying to avoid using some kind of Apache redirect. I've checked TWikiVariables and TWikiPreferences, but I was unable to find anything there. I also checked in configure.pl - it's error free, and I don't think I should have to change the default webpage to refer to /bin/view.pl/MyWeb , as that seems kind of a weird hack. Thanks.Environment
Answer
If you answer a question - or have a question you asked answered by someone - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status is in a drop-down list below the edit box. If either the web or the topic is defined, will generate a full url (including web and topic). Otherwise will generate only up to the script name. An undefined web will default to the main web name.So it's hard-coded -- not configurable. And further on, a slightly different description:
WARNING if there is no web specification (in the web or topic parameters) the web defaults to $TWiki::cfg{UsersWebName}. If there is no topic specification, or the topic is '0', the topic defaults to the web home topic name.The line of code that does that (
$web ||= $cfg{UsersWebName}; ) is in a function that is used a lot, so untolled things would break or work differently.
Compare that to the options you ruled out: - Apache redirect:
Alias / "<Drive>:/<...>/bin/view/MyWeb/WebHome"
- Editing the default web page (index.html):
<html><head> <META HTTP-EQUIV=Refresh CONTENT="0; URL=bin/view/MyWeb/WebHome"> </head> Logging on... [that's only if you have a slow single sign-on, like NTLM] </html>
