Treehouse TeacherHi there! You will need to create a .htaccess file which tells the site what to show and how to direct the page. I found an older post with instructions on how to do this.
Take a look at this thread
Hope this helps!

3,629 PointsUhm... So the .htaccess file worked, but is causing trouble. When I type in my home page konradhunter.com it gives me the following 403 error.
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /.html on this server.
Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
