I installed NGINX and have a pretty much static pages. I want to point my DNS hostname to a subdirectory and one to the main top directory. Is is possible to do this on digitalocean?

Hi @marti149

I’m not sure if I understand what you’re trying to do, but my answer would be yes :-)

So you want to do something like this?

www.mydomain.com       would point to /var/www/website
www.otherdomain.com    would point to /var/www/website/subdir
