Link Structure

Where in Back Office can I change the way SS generates the structure of a link. Say from http://www.domain.com to http://domain.com ?

The Preferences > Hosting Service screen is where you can change some urls and paths for your store. However, there is no place in the back office of the store where you can configure the domain name, that is part of the store's .auth file. If you need to change it you will need to get a new auth file with the new domain name and then edit the <storeid>.aa found in the ShopSite backoffice cgi directory (usually call ss or bo) and make the appropriate changes to urls in that file.

If you mean the shopping cart add to cart and view cart links, you can do that in Preferences -> Hosting Service.

If you mean the links between store pages (and links to more info pages and the URLs for images), then there is no setting to change this, it is based on the authorized URL in your ShopSite license .auth file so you would need to get a new license file with the desired domain in it in order to make this change. If you are hosted with a ShopSite reseller you should make this request to them. If you are not hosted by a reseller, contact ShopSite sales.

The whole story is..
Using a custom template, I've got the minicart attached as a .js file.

The MC contents list out:
prod/price
prod/price
prod/price
- - - - - --
Subtotal

I'm having a glitchy little issue whereas when you navigated to http://www.domain.com/ the mini cart's contents list out fine. But if you navigate to http://domain.com/ the content will not list out.

So, I resolved this by adding a simple .htaccess rewrite and all was fine. But then I upgraded to 8.3 and the rewrite is throwing server errors. So I deleted the rewrite and was looking to see if there was a way to resolve it in the back office.

Nevermind guys, this was easily handled through my host. I forgot all about it.
