URL to your eFiction: http://www.koishii.net/narnia or http://caspian-peter.koishii.net
Version of eFiction: eFiction version 3.4.3
Have you bridged eFiction, if so with what?: No
Version of PHP: PHP Version 4.3.11
Version of MySQL: MySQL 4.1.14
Have you searched for your problem: I've scanned some of the topics in this forum.
If so, what terms did you try: N/A
State the nature of your problem: The skin changer works perfectly using the http://www.koishii.net/narnia address, but when I try to change it using the subdomain http://caspian-peter.koishii.net , it adds in the folder "narnia" so that I am sent to an invalid address like this: http://caspian-peter.koishii.net/ narnia/index.php?skin=Guardians. Am I going to have to abandon use of the subdomain entirely or is this a fixable issue? Please help!
Do you have a test account for us? No. Should I?

http://caspian-peter.koishii.net/index.php?skin=Guardians

You are pointing to http://caspian-peter.koishii.net/ narnia/ which doesn't exist. In admin->settings
Make sure your Site URL: is http://caspian-peter.koishii.net
and not http://caspian-peter.koishii.net/narnia

That's just it. The site URL I have listed under my admin settings is http://caspian-peter.koishii.net . I have no idea where "narnia" is coming from.

check your style.css file for guardians and make sure "narnia" isn't accidentally added in there like

header{
background: /narnia/header.jpg or something like that.

I use full URLs on all images, so that wouldn't be an issue. And even if I had done so, the image wouldn't be appearing, but the page would still load. There wouldn't be a 404 error.

Thanks for trying... I'm going to have to go in and try to tweak the code for the skin change menu, I think...

Your actual folder is called "narnia" but the subdomain is caspian-peter?

It would work if your folder was also called caspian-peter. The PHP in the skin change is calling on $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] ... so I'm assuming that's where narnia's coming from.

I'd rename the folder to caspian-peter, so the subdomain is pointing to the caspian-peter (which will solve your problem). And then under the narnia folder, use a mod_rewrite or a redirection tool.
