XRouting

XRouting is a simple plugin that handles requests for different contexts. It automatically switches the context based on a (sub)domain AND/OR subfolder.

It's like the Gateway plugin from the docs, except you don't have to manually edit the plugin: it takes the http_host and base_url settings you have already configured in your context and routes based on that. It caches the http_host/base_url => context relation so it doesn't perform excessive database lookups.

Instructions

All you need to do is to install this plugin and make sure your contexts have http_host and base_url context settings set.

System Settings

You can add the following system settings:

• xrouting.include_www - automatically include www subdomain
• xrouting.show_no_match_error - set to true to show the error page if no matching context has been found (false will show the default context instead)
• xrouting.default_context - define the default context if no matching context has been found and xrouting.show_no_match_error is false
