I've got a WP site that also provides landing pages for a number of
other sites. I've set it up as the default server config for that IP,
and that's working fine. However, the requirement I've got is to go to a
specific landing page dependant on domain name. This is how I've gone
about it ( as there are a lot of pages...


map $http_host $page_redirect {
hostnames;

default notset;

..example1.com /link/example1;
....
}

hostname example.com;

location = / {
if ( $page_redirect ~ notset ) {
rewrite ^ /index.php break;
}
# this one works but rewrites the url.
rewrite ^ $page_redirect redirect;
#try_files $page_redirect $page_redirect/ /index.php?$page_redirect;
}

So I'm basically only trying to redirect from http://www.example.com for
example, but not http://www.example.com/index.php, and only from
predefined domains.

As the comment says, this does work if I use a rewrite ... redirect; but
the URL then changes to http://www.example1.com/link/example1, whereas I
want to see http://www.example1.com alone.

The try_files comes up with a 404, which is really perplexing... I
expected it to go through the .php block like the others!

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Cheers,

Steve
