    Can’t find where to customize the mapped subdomain name for the chosen page. I presume the default setting is:

    • Original: example.com/abc
    • Alias: abc.example.com

    But it does not work for me. I cannot access the page via alias. Neither the original page url is redirected to alias.

    Might be due to Nginx configuration. Is it?

    Hi,

    Can you please elaborate cannot access? You need to first either create a wildcard subdomain entry in your DNS record to view subdomains.

    If WildCard is set and you want to view the URL, then add the page link to your menu, view your website ftontend and click the page link it will have the subdomain structure, the page links are not changed when you are on WordPress Dashboard, due to wordpress configurations conflicts and integrations with page builders, if you have set the subdomain correctly then when you access the original url you will have canonical url tag in the source code to tell the search engines that your original url is now on subdomain.

    So you do not need to do any mapping. All SEO Plugins are integrted with this plugin so you do not need to do anything further.

    I have a multisite with a number of subsites. For one subsite, it is practically a single page, so I would like to put that into the main site and just map the url to subsite.

    I copy&pasted the subsite’s mainpage to main site, and removed the subsite.

    Now, for the new page on the main site, I used your plugin to access it from subdomain url.

    When I type that url to browser, I get to see the multisite’s default page, which appears when the target subsite is missing. The url of that default page looks like mainsite.com/network/xxx=subsite.com

    In short, the subsite’s url is not matched to the main site’s new page.

    Hi,

    Thanks for your response, this plugin does not support multisite.

    The whole point of using this plugin is to achieve subdomain using root single installation and avoiding multiple wordpress installations or multisites.

    In future i am adding more subdomains in the lite version.
