    The use case I’d like to support is multiple DNS entrys’ mapping to different folders with masking, The DNS entry’s may or may not be subdomains of the actual wordpress site.

    For example say the actual site is Shoecompany.com, and secondary DNS names which are brands of the shoecompany, eg busterbrown.com, which is just a folder of shoes off the main site shoecompany.com.

    While I can use reverse proxy (cloudflare workers) to serve busterbrown.com from the shoecompany.com site a) I’ve yet to enable the folder mapping using your tool, but more importantly b) I can’t seem to get wordpress login to let me login from busterbrown.com using the same credentials I migth have on shoecompany.com.

    Do you have an suggestions on how to set this up, and or references to docs on configuring the various components? I don’t want (or need) multsite, I just want a single site of content and plugins which masquerades (dns masking) as various names depending on the DNS origins original request.

    Never mind as Gilda Radner from SNL would say…

    Works like a charm, including the login. My issue was cloudflare reverse proxy / worker set up that I thought I’d need to map the domain portion of the path. Nope, just do normal non proxied no worker routers on the domain to the IP, then this tool to map to the ‘microsite/folder’.

    I’m using this with Buddyboss (again orks fine). Only additional issues I had to resolves is classic WP abs URL vrs relative URL’s. The plugin “Make Paths Relative” fixes that. And then some messing around ing buddyboss (eg use a custom URL without a hostname in the ‘after login/logout’ so you don’t get redirected back to the ‘main’ site.
