Wilcard Subdomain

[marduck]

how to create a subdomain with wilcard for lavalair scripts, such as in twiter example, users will have their own subdomain
I've done it like a proper setting wordpresMU, but always failed, is it possible to have extra files in the index.php?

[cs.spot123]

Create a file ..

profile.php?user=admin

in profile.php..

$user = $_GET[user']

for my_sql_query .. For name = $user
fetch querys from ibwf_users
user shout counts, snaps, scraps etc..

Now try viewing : profile.php?user=admin

If it works fine..

Now go to .htaccess
and use following code..

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^([^/]+).html profile.php?user=$1 [NC]

So
profile.php?user=admin becomes sitename.com/admin.html

Similarly u can even have admin.sitename.com
for that enable wild card...


Go to cpanel.. -> Subdomain options.. Create a new subdomain
using "*" (Star) .. * stands for wild card.

and edit htaccess ;-)
Hope it helps

if u have (master) reseller with root access or dedicated u can enable wildcards with no script code required

[GiLL]

look this is best wild card dns setting if you have dedicate server or your server administer can do it for you
and you don't need put any thing in .htaccess file as well as you don't need even rewrite rules just put few code in your index which will check user in data base and send him on valid place do everything it self

I use wildcard dns on my site, and my coding is as i want it, code my own script, but i can't seem to get my .htaccess file right to rewrite as username.html my script is http://user.site.com/sites/index.php?name=username

when you want to access the site, you just type into your browser, user.sitename.com then it redirects to the above adress.
