Question
Getting Ghost to recognize use of www sub-domain and no sub-domain
- Posted October 1, 2018
- GhostNginxUbuntu 16.04
I’ve setup a new Ghost blog on Ubuntu 16.04 at pricelesspricing.com. That works fine. However, when I go to www.pricelesspricing.com I get a screen telling me to setup Ghost.
I currently have a CNAME record directing www.pricelesspricing.com to pricelesspricing.com I have an A record for pricelesspricing.com that directs it to by site IP
What I’ve tried:
- Add both domains to SSL using certbot
- Added both domains to Ghost config under server_name
- Restarted Ghost and NGINX
- NGINX and Ghost config now show: server_name pricelesspricing.com www.pricelesspricing.com
I’m stuck now and not sure what else to try. Can anyone help please?
Thanks.

I’ve restored a snapshot and now the www version doesn’t work because I need to re-sort out the SSL certs. That’s fine, just letting you know in case you see that in the meantime.
This might help.
