Hi,

My goal is to create a portal where I can copy my site and try out different skins and modules, without affecting my main site. 

So, I watched the portals videos and created a child portal www.riverfriends.org/test

When I created it I used a template that I generated from my main portal (where I check the box to include content)

When enter the www.riverfriends.org/test address in my browser, it changes it to www.riverfriends.org . I login, but I am clearly on my main site, beause changes I make are reflected on my site.

Total newbie.  What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,
John

When I go to Host>Portals I see the new portal.  It has just one alias, www.riverfriends.org/test, shown on the table.

The default portal shows the following under "aliases" in the table:
www.riverfriends.org
60.80.208.205/riverfriendsorg

Now, I am able to go to the test portal and move around among pages.  However, if I login, the "test" disappears from the URL and I am back on my default site.

It must be pointing back somewhere, but I am at a loss as to where to look. 

Other thoughts?
