Hi

Client has 2 identical Joomla web sites on different domains.
Second domain is looking on first domains database.
I have a problem with images on second site.

Since images for articles after content copying are uploaded to only first domain, new articles on second domain have a broken link to image, because that images doesn't exist on second domain server.

Is there a way to tell Joomla on second domain to look into images folder on first domain?
Can I solve this problem with htaccess? Or is there maybe another solution?

Thanks in advance

Welcome to Joomla forum!

I think that you could use .htaccess to rewrite certain URLs to the other server.

If you have example_server1.com (which contains the images) & example_server2.com
then you could rewrite all links containing example_server2.com/images/* to example_server1.com/images/*

Maybe you can use the info from this article: http://www.electrictoolbox.com/aliasing ... r-htaccss/

Hi Peter and thanks for help

I read the article and tried with this, but it didn't work

RewriteRule ^(images|modules/.*) http://originalsite-withimages.com/$1 [L]
