Keeping url the same

[hunter349]

I have a .com url and have it linked to my smugmug site. I was just wondering how I would be able to keep my custom url when linked back to my smugmug site.

the url is www.chrishunterphotography.com

It looks like you are currently using forwarding.

You need to use CNAME - not forwarding - if you want your custom URL to "stick". See http://www.smugmug.com/help/professional-accounts.

Thank you!

Sorry, I should have looked at your navbar entries before.

You also need to change your navbar to use relative links - right now they are hardcoded to your smugmug URL.

For example, change:
<a href='http://chphotographic.smugmug.com/galleries'>Client Portfolio</a>
to

<a href='/galleries'>Client Portfolio</a>

That makes sense. I probably would have been all turned around without knowing that.
