Server Side Includes in Web Hosting
All Linux web hosting plans that we provide support Server Side Includes, so you're able to incorporate dynamic components to any static website that you host on our cloud platform. By creating a clear .htaccess file and typing in a couple of lines of code inside it, you are able to enable SSI for a domain or perhaps a subdomain. The file involved must be inside the particular folder where you will make use of SSI and you can see the code inside our Frequently Asked Questions section, so you don't need any coding knowledge. Our 24/7 technical support team shall also be able to help you with activating Server Side Includes if you aren't absolutely sure how to proceed. You should also remember to modify the extension of all your files that are going to implement SSI from .html to .shtml and make sure that the links on your site point to the appropriate files.
Server Side Includes in Semi-dedicated Servers
It will not take you more than a moment to activate Server Side Includes in case you have a semi-dedicated server plan with our company. When you decide to enable this function, you must make an .htaccess file in the main folder for the domain or subdomain in which you would like SSI to be enabled. In that file, you have to copy some code, that you can get in the FAQ article we have dedicated to SSI. You'll find the latter in the Help section of your Hosting Control Panel, so you do not need any previous knowledge about this kind of things. The only 2 things you ought to take care of are renaming all of the pages that will utilize Server Side Includes from .html to .shtml and replacing all of the links on your website, to ensure that they point to the updated files.
