How to do subdomains with Codeigniter and Nginx? - El Forum - 03-06-2013
[eluser]tim peterson[/eluser]
I'd like to have various subdomains on my site such as this: biology.mysite.com
Currently I have the following code in my nginx.conf:
Code:
server {
listen 80;
server_name biology.mysite.com;
return 301 https://mysite.com/tags/biology$request_uri;
}This code works in that if you point the browser to biology.mysite.com, it redirects to mysite.com/tags/biology and the correct biology content loads. However, I don't want to redirect the url but want the subdomain to remain the url.
So instead I replaced the above with the code below based on [this gist][1] but it has no effect (meaning pointing to biology.mysite.com simply goes to mysite.com):
Code:
if ($host ~* ^www\.([a-z0-9]*)\.(mysite\.com) )
{
set $tagname $1;
set $host_without_www $2;
rewrite ^/(.*)$ $scheme://$tagname.$host_without_www/ permanent;
}
if ($host ~* ^([a-z0-9]+)\.(mysite\.com))
{
set $tagname $1;
set $host_without_www $2;
rewrite ^/$ /index.php/tags/index/ last;
rewrite ^/(.+)$ /index.php/$1 last;
}Thoughts?
