I am following an explanation of how to set up a multilingual site in Umbraco in the Umbraco Users' Guide book, but I am stuck at the point where I should tie the two hostnames I have set up in IIS to two homepage nodes I have in Umbraco. When I right-click the homepage nodes I don't see the "Manage hostnames" option.
This is probably something simple I am overlooking...
Seems like the user you're logging in with may not have access to the "manage hostnames" option. Are you the administrator of the site or is there someone else who is in charge of what you can actually access?
It is a local development installation that I manage myself. I thought I was logged in as the admin user but I am not. I actually lost the Admin user and the admin user type.
I can see the admin user type is present in the umbracoUserType table, but it is not show in the backoffice Users section under the User types folder. And it is not shown in the dropdown at the user details screen.
The user I was logged in with had the editor user type (2). When I change this to admin in the database by setting the userType field in the user record to 1 it still shows up as an editor? That is really strange.
However, I did solve the problem by creating a new admin-like user type, called Administrator and assigning all rights to that type and then creating a new user with that type. When I log in with that user I can manage the hostnames, which is what I wanted :)
Manage hostnames option now showing up
Hi,
I am following an explanation of how to set up a multilingual site in Umbraco in the Umbraco Users' Guide book, but I am stuck at the point where I should tie the two hostnames I have set up in IIS to two homepage nodes I have in Umbraco. When I right-click the homepage nodes I don't see the "Manage hostnames" option.

Best, Julius.
Hi Julius
Hmm that sounds a bit odd, it should be there when you right click the node and get the context menu. It's right under "publish".
If you still don't see it then please post a screendump of what you're actually seeing :)

Hey Jan, this is what I am seeing on my Umbraco 4.7 installation.
I have a Umbraco 4.5.2 installation that does show the 'manage domains' option...
