Showing a CMS page instead of usual index page on PS 1.7.6

[Alessandro]

Hello, i need to use a cms page as the homepage for my site.

Let's say my url is domain.com, and my cms is homepage.com/cms/10-test

I need to still show the url domain.com, but to show the content of the page homepage.com/cms/10-test.

I tried different solutions by modifiyng .htaccess and IndexController.php, but i couldn't figure it out.

Can somebody please help me? Thanks.

Hey there.
I know this is quite an old topic but i'm trying to do the same on 1.7.

DirectoryIndex in htaccess doesn't seem to do the trick.

There might be a way to do it in indexController.php with some sort of :
 

Tools::redirect('index.php?id_cms=12&controller=cms')

but sadly i got not idea how to write it properly...
Any help would be highly appreciated :)

I would set the shop a level lower.

so the shop would be in a folder like shop, that makes it posible to add html5 before and you have more design freedom.

Hey Nickz! Thanks for your answer
The design isn't really the issue. I used a visual editor (such as crazy elements) and it works just fine. My problem is really replacing the default index with the existing cms page (content/11-pagename).
