has anyone here used indxr w/ godaddy hosting? I'm encountering a really annoying stats folder that cannot be made invisible, because I'm told I don't have the privileges to modify it. SO i can't set up folders without the damn stats folder showing up on the menu.. If I create a subdomain in order to eliminate this issue, can I then forward my domain name to a root domain..
Work-arounds, i know.. Print designer learning website design -- need a site up in the next few days..
might have to settle for an inaccesible stat folder.. X(

Try the following:
1) Make sure you have full access to your FTP account (admin) then make sure you have full permissions to delete content ect.
2) If you have an admin account, try and change the permissions of your stats folder, give it a 777 using your FTP app and then try and delete it.
3) Sometimes if you have an .htaccess with in a folder you can't just delete that folder, and if you open that folder you can't always see that .htaccess file. So login to your Godaddy account and see if there is a file manager or something like that, then navigate to the stats folder and see if is anything in there.
(Note: Don't just delete stuff from the root of your webserver, email Godaddy support and ask them if you need it? Do this before you try any of the points above)
To answer your other question:
Create a .htaccess file and copy and paste this code into it:
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule (.*) http://subdomain.mydomain.com/$1… [R=301,L]change http://subdomain.mydomain.com to your sub domain and place this file in the root of your webserver and there you have it.
If you need a stats app then Google Analytics is the one you want.
I hope this helps you out!
