My_account.html to Subdomain

[theprogeekftw4717]

Hey,

I'd like to know how to make it so that if someone visits https://*******.net/account_home.html, they will be redirected to https://account.*******.net without the my_account.html at the end?

Edit:
I use Apache as my webserver just in case if it depends on editing the htaccess.

Regards,
Geek

Have a look at the answer on this, it'll probably help you

http://webmasters.stackexchange.com/questions/23448/htaccess-directory-to-subdomain

Or something like this:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^account\.domain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/account_home.html/$1 [QSA,L]

In order to create virtual subdomains, you must have an existing wildcard DNS record.

Search for "virtual subdomains" or "dynamic subdomains"

Thanks for the quick response!
We use CloudFlare and we already setup the domain with a wildcard SSL.

I just moved to Nginx and I need to know how to do this without the /account_home.html in the link.
I want the link to be "https://account.*****.net"
Also, my whole site is using HTTPS and I'm not able to find one that works for me.

Thanks.

I never said wildcard SSL

I said wildcard DNS

Then try:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^account\.domain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/account_home.html/$1 [QSA,L]

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/account_home.html/$1 [QSA,L]

Well, I use Nginx so I converted this code and used it on my config but whenever someone tries to access my site, they are automatically redirected to the *****.net/account_home.html.
Also another question, does it work if I use a CNAME or A record called "account" and point it to my server? Because while using a * DNS, I don't want the server IP to be Leaked by some cloudflare revolvers (If you can understand what I mean by that)

To be honest, I have no idea, the stuff I posted above is what I found on google to try to help.

Might be worth asking on stackoverflow.com or similar
