mapping domain on the same IP address (same hosting)

  • hello
    Using Siteground as my hosting for all custom domain name for the network.
    my procedure in adding subsite to my network is as follow:
    adding new sub site=>
    customizing and building pages=>
    In Cpanel at addon domains, I set the custom domain for my subsite to the main site folder where the network installation=>
    in the network in the edit site section, I point my subsite to my custom domain name of the subsite.=>
    adding SSL for my subsite custom domain=>
    At Cpanel, I Enable Cloudflare for CDN.
    But now it seems that I messed up the site, the images do not load and bed requests.
    My questions are:
    1. How to properly mapping domain on the same IP address (same hosting)?
    2. How to properly add the WWW version to my custom domain of my subsite?

  • None of this is a WordPress question. You should ask your host.

    For IP you need to ask your hosting.
    With a Multisite you can create your network, create secondary sites, from WordPress 4.5 without plug-in, click on edit and activate the mapping domain.
    An example follows:
    Installation before enabling the multisite https://www.network.com
    secondary site with subdirectory https://www.network.com/user
    secondary site with subdomain except www https://user.network.com
    edit for secondary sites (mapping domain) https://www.newdomain.com i hope this helps you.
    Do not install plugins to create secondary sites with your ip address, wordpress works with the name.
    I read problems out there consider this a tip and not the truth, if you use https for your network be sure to use https for secondary sites too.
    0) From your browser read the domains (perhaps you will also have wildcard extensions for the subdomain) valid for your private and cloudflare certificate.
    1) Cloudflare by default connects to the origin server in http but the client shows https.
    Ask your hosting how to enable https from the origin of your server to the customer.
    2) also from cloudflare it is possible to create a page rule that excludes any wp-admin path for cache.
