[Solved] Alias domain request: synapsejournals.dedyn.io

[khamdanaf]

Hai dukungan HelioHost,

Silakan tambahkan domain terparkir/alias ke akun saya.

Username: khamdanaf
Server: Tommy
Main domain: journalpulse.heliohost.us
Alias domain: synapsejournals.dedyn.io

DNS untuk synapsejournals.dedyn.io sudah mengarah ke:
A 65.19.154.90
AAAA 2001:470:1:1ee::1002

Silakan parkirkan alias ini ke domain utama saya journalpulse.heliohost.us (httpdocs).

Terima kasih.

Hi HelioHost support,

 

Please add a parked domain/alias to my account.

 

Username: khamdanaf

Server: Tommy

Main domain: journalpulse.heliohost.us

Alias domain: synapsejournals.dedyn.io

 

DNS for synapsejournals.dedyn.io already points to:

A 65.19.154.90

AAAA 2001:470:1:1ee::1002

 

Please park this alias to my main domain journalpulse.heliohost.us (httpdocs).

 

Thank you.

A root admin can do this for you, escalating...

Are you planning on redirecting all traffic from journalpulse.heliohost.us to synapsejournals.dedyn.io, or is there a reason you need to keep using both domains?

Hi Krydos,

Thanks for your reply.

Yes, I’m planning to use synapsejournals.dedyn.io as the main/canonical domain for my OJS site. Please redirect all traffic from journalpulse.heliohost.us to synapsejournals.dedyn.io so that old links keep working, but the new domain will be the primary one for branding and future journals.

Thank you!

In that case we recommend adding the new domain as an addon domain (not an alias) and then you can use .htaccess to redirect all the traffic from journalpulse.heliohost.us to synapsejournals.dedyn.io. I set the new domain as your main domain, and the heliohost.us subdomain as an addon. I also put an .htaccess file on the journalpulse.heliohost.us with these contents:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^journalpulse.heliohost.us [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.journalpulse.heliohost.us [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://synapsejournals.dedyn.io/$1 [R=301,L,NC]

This should redirect everything to the new domain with a permanent redirect which means search engines and browsers should update their links. This .htaccess should preserve the path and filename so if someone goes to journalpulse.heliohost.us/path1/file2 it should send them to synapsejournals.dedyn.io/path1/file2, but if you're having any issues feel free to customize the .htaccess as you need. Eventually if you stop seeing any traffic to the heliohost.us subdomain in your web statistics let us know and we can remove the domain entirely to save server resources. Let us know if you need help with anything else.
