[Resolved] Content based on url (subdomain)

Hello,

What I trying to do is the following:

I want to created a conditional output based on the subdomain entered and use that in a template page, so

if 'sub1.mydomain.com' is entered I want to display all the myproducts (CPT) that has the custom field subdomain = 'sub1' set.

Or I think about put something in the .htaccess to redirect all the subdomain with a variable after it, eg.

'sub1.mydomain.com' redirect 'sub1.mydomain.com/?subdomain=sub1'

Hope someone has some suggestions for me.

Hi Walter

Can I clarify what you are asking.

I'm not sure whether you are talking about users visiting a url such as sub1.mydomain.com and having that display all of a certain CPT that have a custom field 'subdomain' set with the value 'sub1'.

In which case you are talking about a multisite installation?

Or have I misunderstood?

Hello Nigel,

I'm not using a Multisite installation, it is based on the plugin 'Page as Subdomain'. In that way I can access a single page through a subdomain. Eg. hidden link can be accessed through sub1.mydomain.com.

When accessing that page I want to display content that is based on the subdomain (orginal the slug of the page). So my view needs an input variable that is filled by the subdomain/slug name.

E.g. the template view on the page:

[wpv-view name="all products based on subdomain" mysubdomain="sub1"]

Hoping this will clear my question.

Hi Walter

I'm not familiar with the plugin, but if all it is doing is mapping pages to subdomains, hopefully the page slug is still available.

You can refer to that with the shortcode [wpv-post-slug] (https://toolset.com/documentation/views-shortcodes/#wpv-post-slug).

So you should be able to re-write your view shortcode like so:

[wpv-view name='all products based on subdomain' mysubdomain='[wpv-post-slug]']

Thanks Nigel,

Your solution worked for me! De slug is still available when entering the page by subdomain.

I defined 'mysubdomain' in the query filter as a view variable an can use it that way.

Thanks for the support!
