WP Page to Subdomain?

  • I have a couple of WordPress pages that are currently in the format – blog.com/page/

    I’d like to re-write the pages to subdomains – page.blog.com – can anyone suggest a good way to do this with wordpress? I only want to specify certain pages to re-direct to a virtual subdomain, but have yet to figure out how to do this.

    Anyone got any ideas?

    EDIT: only just noticed this plugin. Will try it out.

    Meh, the plugin I referenced above isn’t much help. It redirects all categories, without an option to disable them, uses up a tonne of queries, and doesn’t work with WP-Cache.

    So, the original question still stands. Anyone know how best to map specific wordpress pages to subdomains?

    If you will have Pages and directories with the same name – that’s call for trouble!

    For redirecting Pages somewhere else – look for the Redirectify plugin.

    Thanks, I’ll have a look for it.

    I don’t think I have any pages that are the same name as directories though. My only “directories” are the virtual directories that wordpress spits out when creating the pages etc.

    Then I should re-phrase it: having real or virtual directories and Pages with the same name… ??

    On the other hand, re: OP.
    What is a “virtual subdomain”?

    By that I mean a subdomain that I haven’t specifically designated as a subdomain, but is created using wildcards – like WPMU creates subdomain blogs, even though you haven’t gone into your host panel and created one. It’s probably not the right name, it just sounded right. :p

    I’m not sure the redirectify plugin will help, although I could be wrong.

    Say I create an “about” wordpress page, and it reads as domain.com/about/. I effectively want to make that page accessible from about.domain.com (instead of the original url). Is this what redirectify does? From quickly reading up on it, it looks more like just redirecting from one page to another, whereas I want the page content to be the same, just accessible from a different url.

    PS. thanks for your help on this, I appreciate it.
