    Hi guys,

    I’m having a play about with getting WordPress working on my local Synology NAS but having some problems trying to get it working with both www and non-www.

    1) I’m hosting with 1&1 and have created a domain.co.uk subdomain (www) with a custom cname (to my NAS) xxxx.dscloud.me.

    2) On my NAS I have created 2 alias’ one for https://www.domain.co.uk and one for domain.co.uk

    3) Within WordPress I have configured the settings to run on www.

    Result: A working site on https://www.domain.co.uk

    Next steps: Trying to get the https://domain.co.uk to work.

    1) Pointed domain.co.uk to the same custom cname
    2. I have already setup the nas with an alias to the non-www to the same folder

    Result: Too many redirects error.

    Additional things tried:

    – Modifying the .htaccess with the following rewrite:

    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain\.co.uk [NC]
    RewriteRule (.*) https://www.domain.co.uk/$1 [L,R=301]

    Result: Still Too many redirects error

    – Modifying the 1&1 domain to forward to https://www.domain.co.uk

    Result: Redirects fine but user loses context. i.e. https://domain.co.uk/wp-admin redirects back to https://www.domain.co.uk where I’d want it load normally but rewrite the url.

    Any ideas what I may be doing wrong????

    Thanks!

    Mike

    I guess I posted too soon, must have been a replication delay as it’s now working although I did have to take the rewrite condition out of the .htaccess as it wasn’t needed ??
