Maintenance Redirect on Shared Hosting - Root ONLY

While you can find almost anything on the web, we had to resort to our own coding to get .htaccess to redirect only our hosting site, and not all of its minions...

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/maintenance\.html$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.yourdomain\.com)?$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://yourdomain.com/maintenance.html [R=302,L]

To make this work:
1. Replace "yourdomain" with the domain you are taking down.
2. Make a page you want to show others called "maintenance.html", or whatever you want and change "maintenance.html" to your file name in the code.
3. Paste it in .htaccess (or create .htaccess) in your root.

All of your other hosted domains will still work as usual.

Oh, and if you don't have 404 Error handling already...this will point all errors for pages you take offline to the maintenance page:

ErrorDocument 404 /maintenance.html

Veteran's Day Weekend

First and Foremost, thank you to our troops!

Our websites are starting to behave well on testing servers, and plan on going live this weekend! So, in the interim, we promised you the world (aka a Veteran's Day discount). We had to make it interesting somehow.

1. Email us at either:
information(at)tetonwebdesign.com
information(at)tetonpixeldust.com

2. Make your subject (extra savings for identifying the movie; we're not affiliated):
"There's no sunshine in the men's john."

3. Relax:
Tuesday morning you will get your email code, and a current services brochure.

Isn't that nice? :)

Now, drop and give me 20 (aka The Fine Print):

The Veteran's Day coupon code will only be sent to valid email addresses, and Spring Haney, Inc. is not responsible for any codes not received.

Hard @ Work

Those little counters on our websites...there is a reason they are sitting at zero. :)  We are so busy with other design work that ours has taken the back burner.  So, no they aren't broken.  We just can't give the exact date they will be up.  (The mouse in our pocket is hoping for Friday.)

Have no fear though!  We are still accepting work.

Catch up with us at:
information(at)tetonwebdesign.com for your web design/social media/"Web-tucks" and "URI-lifts".
information(at)tetonpixeldust.com for your graphic design/logo/branding items.

Yes, we hate spammers too! ... hence the "(at)" verbiage.
