**Your software** My Mautic version is: 3.10 My PHP version is: 7.2 **Your problem** My problem is: Not really a problem, but rather a challenge (one I expect @joeyk might be able to solve). I would like to create a landing page for a domain that is running mautic, but for the landing page url to replace the base login of Mautic. So example I have mautic 3 install on [https://domain.com](https://domain.com). So when I go to [https://domain.com](https://domain.com) I get the Mautic login. I go and create landing page and get the new url for the page [https://domain.com/new\_test](https://domain.com/new_test). What I would like is for the page new\_test to redirect to base url and if someone goes to [https://domain.com](https://domain.com) they see the landing page and not the login page for Mautic. Then to have a way to get to mautic login. These errors are showing in the log: Steps I have tried to fix the problem: ---

Hey Mike, Not sure I can solve this, this is an apache and htaccess config question. If you want your Mautic to be in a subfolder, than move to a subfolder 🙂 But then you can’t go out from that subfolder without fiddling with the htaccess / apache settings. Basically you’d need to mask your landing page url as another url. Not my experies. Good luck, J ---

Thanks Joey, that is what I thought when I wrote the post. After getting your message, my partner actually found that Mautic has a feature exactly for this. In settings -\> Configurations there is a flag for “Mautics root url”. here you can actually set the root url to any landing page. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/mautic/original/2X/c/cdcf79d803a79151d090aea5d3876076e0b8769f.png) ---

you can actually redirect to an external URL this way - i.e. to your regular homepage (which is what most people would want) ---

Hi @ekke Would you do this in the head of a normal html page or is this something that can be set in configuration ?
