How do you get images to display on a multi-site set up?

Celero Solutions asked on March 31, 2014 12:22

I created a new site within an existing client's instance of Kentico, client.dev. I added another host header called myclient.dev to the existing client.dev site in IIS I created a new folder called myclient under the App_Themes folder and copied the img folder, including all of the images, into there I updated all references to the images in my master template to reflect this new path i.e. /App_Themes/myclient/img/

When I load the site it displays all images as broken, for example the logo, logoMCN.gif. When I navigate to http://myclient.dev/App_Themes/myclient/img/logoMCN.gif it displays “page cannot be found” However when I navigate to http://client.dev/App_Themes/myclient/img/logoMCN.gif the logo displays.

Even when I put the absolute URL to the image in the master template, i.e. http://client.dev/App_Themes/myclient/img/logoMCN.gif, while not ideal, doesn't even work…

Is there a way to display the images on a multi-site set up?

My guess is you don't have your second site setup properly within Kentico. You should have the site URL as myclient.dev in Site Manager. You will also need a license key for that domain.
