WP Multisite plugin to maintain URL-redirects for Blogs.

Features

Permanent 301 Redirect to blogs main domain
Painless installation and activation – no file access necessary.
Checks domain status
Supports UTF-8 Domains
WP-Cli commands

Usage

Set up your DNS. Make sure your Domain points to your WordPress installation. You can achieve this by either setting up an A- or CNAME-Record in your DNS configuration. Your webserver must be configured to handle requests on the given Domain.
Under Network Admin – Sites edit the site and select the Alias Domains Tab.
Enter the domain without http ao / and click “Add”.
Click “Check Status” to see if it worked. If something went wrong you will see an error message.

If you want to redirect with URL path appended (e.g. from some-alias.tld/some/path to some-real-blog.tld/some/path), add this to your wp-config.php:

define( 'WPMU_BLOG_ALIAS_REDIRECT_WITH_PATH', true );\n

Status messages

Warning: The domain matches the site URL of this blog: The Blog is using the domain name as Site URL.

Error: The domain is already used by another site: A different Blog is already using the domain as Site URL. Eiter Remove the alias from the sblog you are currently workin on, or from the other one.

The domain is unreachable: There is likely an error in your DNS or your Webserver configuration. Use nslookup from he command line or whatsmydns.net to check the DNS-Settings.

The domain or a redirect does not point to this blog: Following all redirects did not end up on your WordPress-Site, but somewhere else. There is likely an error in your DNS or your Webserver configuration.

\n","faq":"\n

\nI found a bug. Where should I post it?\n\n

Please use the issues section in the GitHub-Repository.

I will most likely not maintain the forum support forum on wordpress.org. Anyway, other users might have an answer for you, so it’s worth a shot.

\nI’d like to suggest a feature. Where should I post it?\n\n

Please post an issue in the GitHub-Repository

\nWill you anwser support requests by email?\n\n

No.

\nThe plugin works pretty well for me. Any way I can show my appreciation?\n\n

Thanks! As a well trained person living in a rich country there is little more I need.
\nThe majority on the other hand is not doing very well. And because this plugin is about redirection, I’d like to point your attention to the several refugee crises taking place everwhere around the world.

If my little piece of software was able to help you, please consider helping others and place a donation at the UNHCR.
