Hello, Is there any mean to redirect an url to the toolforge url? So " http://www.mydomain.com" --> "https://mytool.toolforge.org"? On Heroku, it works by adding "http://www.mydomain.com" to a list, and through with Cname record + DNS server. It is not essential, but as I bought the domain a few months ago... Psemdel

No, Toolforge does not currently have any native system for using vanity domain names. Bryan -- Bryan Davis Technical Engagement Wikimedia Foundation Principal Software Engineer Boise, ID USA [[m:User:BDavis_(WMF)]] irc: bd808

I think that you can make a redirect in the panel of the provider where you bought the domain. :) Best regards, Zoran.

If you set up a CNAME <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNAME_record#Details>: www.mydomain.com CNAME mytool.toolforge.org Won't visitors see www.mydomain.com in their address bar even when they're actually connected to the toolforge server? Is that what you mean? There may be CORS implications however if you're requesting JS or other resources from toolforge.org. -Travis On Tue, Oct 20, 2020 at 1:33 PM Zoran Dori <zorandori4444(a)gmail.com> wrote:

Right, I was asking OP if that satisfied their requirements. I know that some Registrars and DNS hosts run a server to allow actual 302 redirects based on domain name. Cheers, -Travis On Tue, Oct 20, 2020 at 8:34 PM Zoran Dori <zorandori4444(a)gmail.com> wrote:
