I want to create a test url to see how my drupal 7 website that I have developed in my local box looks like in the host that will eventually shows the website . this website will replace the old website already set up in cpanel. I do not want to touch the old website that is public to all in the web yet, since I want to do more testing with the new website while putting it on cpanel and also share it with only one person so I can get feedback for the website.
is there a way to set up a test website in drupal for testing and sharing with one person without impacting the public website (old website that will be eventually replaced).
I am in a rush, so any help will be greatly appreciated.
You can create sub-domain from cpanel like subdomain.yourDomain.com and can upload your content in subdomain and also can share credential for subdomain with 2nd person.
The second option is you can create FTP account from cpanel and can upload content in ftp user and also can give access to another person because the ftp user or subdomain user will not able to see file of your domain.

I have registered my domain name example: zoek.com in Google domains forwarding it to google sites sites.google.com/view/zoek/home.
Now, whenever users are visiting zoek.com, the URL in the browser is redirecting to sites.google.com/view/zoek/home. Instead, I want to retain on zoek.com

I bought a domain from Godaddy. I created my web app and hosted on AWS. On opening the URL, it opens my website correctly as I have set the CNAME and other DNS parameters. However, if I do a google search for my website, in the description of the search result it shows this message:
This web page is parked FREE, courtesy of GoDaddy.com New .COMs ...
I submitted the page for indexing on google . Didn't help. How do I fix it?
login to your godaddy account-> domains->dns->domain forward-> fill out,select box (forward and mask), add description and key words, also select box at bottom and save.
I currently have a site setup using Shopify. We have employed the services of a web development company to build us a new website to replace our Shopify site.
The Shopify site contains MP3 downloads. These are linked directly to from a PDF we have already circulated to clients. Shopify has automatically hosted these files on a Content Delivery Network. The URLs for these look like this http://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0058/7082/files/c_semi.mp3?316.
When we host our new website we will be provided with a new CDN as part of a package with our new hosting company.
We will have the ability to write a .htaccess file on this server, so I will redirect all our standard page URLs using 301 redirects.
So my question is, what about the files hosted on our Shopify CDN? They are linked to directly from other media so the URLs need to stay intact.
How can I redirect files with Shopify URLs like this http://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0058/7082/files/c_semi.mp3?316 to the alternative on our new website?
Thanks in advance

I think you'll find that once your shopify shop is closed; which I am assuming you'll do when the other website is ready to go live, your data will be removed, including the CDN data.
You may have to redirect via the shopify shop (keep it open for a while)
or
Use Google webmaster tools to redirect the url when it can't be found.
I have a website and a mobile website (the mobile website is a subdomain where the files are in a subfolder). I have used an htaccess file to redirect mobile users to the mobile site where they can also go back to the full site. This worked great until I added a second website within a subfolder so I would only have one hosting account. Because my htaccess file is in the root folder of the main site, mobile users are redirected to the mobile version of the first site before they ever even reach the second site. Is there a better way to do this or do I need to just purchase two hosting accounts?
I don't have a mobile version of the second site yet, but would like one in the future. I use godaddy to host the sites.
Work around I found was to take the same htaccess file and put it in each domain root folder then edit it to redirect to itself. It works for me. But I agree, all of the htaccess rewrites that I have seen all have the same effect......redirecting to the first mobile site. I wish someone could solve this.
we have a saas web app, written in zend mvc (php) where users can enter their own domain name in their settings page.
When they enter e.g. www.customdomain.com we want this domain to redirect to our web application so we can serve up their own pages from our app.
We do the same already for subdomains by having a *.ourapp.com entry in our DNS configuration.
that works great for subdomains like customdomain.ourapp.com.
This doesn't seem to work for full domain names like www.customdomain.com.
What's the easiest way to have any domain address link to our application, so we can just read out the incoming domain name and act accordingly in our app?
For letting the DNS entry point at your servers:
Domain is already registered (and owned by the customer): Make him configure the CNAME entry to your server's IP. (Even google let this do the enduser by hand - so automating this might be hard)
Domain is free: Register it, configure the CNAME yourself (you own it)
If you only want a redirect, the user can upload a html file or .htaccess file, that performs the redirect. But this has to be done by the customer, too.
