Redirect to section

Hello,
my client has no homepage at the moment, so he wants to show some section on page load. Very newbie question, but I can’t think to something immediate at the moment…

Thanks

Re: Redirect to section

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^(.+) - [PT,L]
RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php
redirect 301 /index.php http://www.site.it/section/

this is my .htaccess now, tried to use index.html, but doesn’t work. Index.php doesn’t work completely: redirects to proper section, but txp cannot generate the page, due to some error…

Re: Redirect to section

In redirect you need only the slash for default:

redirect 301 / http://www.site.it/section/
