I am trying to set up an Add-On Domain (or SubDomain) that will "point" to a particular gallery on my site. Since it takes several hours to propagate the DNS data across the web, I am unable to test it at this time. From earlier testing it appears that I am losing links and formatting on the album page that I am pointing to, while if I access this album via the menu system, all is well.
Is it possible to have a domain name point to a particular gallery a opposed to pointing to the main CE4 Pages Home?
The structure is
public_html/photo-now/galleries/003-route-66 (using cPanel)
My main domains point to public_html/photo-now
I would like to add a couple of domains to point to public_html/photo-now/galleries/003-route-66
Is it necessary to traverse the TTG heirarchy from the "top" in order to set up the environment and get to the particular gallery or can I simply point to the album directly?
Here is a link to what I get rt-66.com versus going to photographs-now.com and selecting "galleries" then "route 66"

A subdomain requires a separate TTG installation. You can't just point the subdomain directory to your existing gallery. I would just create a redirect page in rt-66.com that redirects the site to your current gallery.
Let's assume that you have a /public_html/subdomains/rt-66 directory that is the root for your subdomain. In there you would have a simple one line index.php file:
<?php header( 'Location: http://photographs-now.com/galleries/003-route-66' ) ; ?>So whenever one loads rt-66.com it will immediatly go to your main page and display the route 66 gallery.

Cool! Looking at your images reminds me that I have to revisit route 66...
