You can use your ad mall as the home page to your domain, or you can use your own home page that links to your mall.
If we installed it on a new domain or one that we host, then by default the mall is shown as your home page. If we installed it on your existing website, then it is likely that we didn't make it your home page since you already have one.
In either case, this can be easily changed without effecting your ad mall.
Using it as your home page
WebAD Wizard™ is installed in the cgi-bin of your domain. To make it show up when your domain name is typed into a Browser, we insert redirect code into the index.html home page file. This instantly redirects visitors to your mall. Below is the entire contents that should appear in the index.html redirect file.
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=/cgi-bin/waw/viewads.pl">
<meta name="keywords" content="">
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>Using your own home page and linking to the ad mall
If you want to stop WebAD Wizard™ from showing up as your home page, then all you have to do is remove the above redirect code from the index.html home page file. Then instead of redirecting to your mall, the contents of the index.html file will be displayed as your home page.
To place a link on your home page (or any page) to your mall, you simply need to link to the viewads.pl file located in the cgi-bin. You must use the full absolute path to the file which looks something like this:
http://yourdomain.com/cgi-bin/waw/viewads.pl.
You can also link to a redirect file in other location, such as:
http://yourdomain.com/waw/
In the example link below we launch a mall in a new Browser window.
Below is the HTML code used to create the link above:
<a href="http://ecommercetoolbox.com/cgi-bin/waw/viewads.pl" target="_blank">Visit our mall!</a>
IMPORTANT NOTE:
If you have our $39 WAW Subscription package, then you must use your mall as the home page since you do not have server access to build any other pages. You can upgrade to the $49 package if you want to be able to use your site for things other than the ad mall.
