pointing domain to wildcard sub sub domain

Question

I have a multisite wordpress install at plataforma.vendamais.pt And I have a wildcard for *.plataforma So all new sites created have this url:

client01.plataforma.vendamais.pt
client02.plataforma.vendamais.pt

and so on.

I need to connect my client's domains to the correspondent website, so the url client01.plataforma.vendamais.pt wont be visible.

As a real case, I have a client's website here:

www.tancredoferrari.plataforma.vendamais.pt/

I need to have his domain tancredoferrari.pt pointing to that address, so his clients will navigate using tancredoferrati.pt and wont see any of the www.tancredoferrari.plataforma.vendamais.pt url.

Is it possible?

Answer 1

There's 2 options here:

Option 1

An CNAME record on the live domain's DNS should be sufficient to do this - so long as you're happy that the resource requests (images, scripts, styles and so forth) behind the scenes are going to the staging domain URLS ( client02.plataforma.vendamais.pt and so forth).

Option 2

Check out the wordpress plugin WordPress MU Domain Mapping . With that you can map the site to multiple domains (and set the primary), which is a better approach.
