Hey friend,

Given that your setup is Apache reverse proxied by Nginx, this may actually be quite easy. At least, I’m hoping it is. Try creating a “.htaccess” file in the document root for domain1 with this in it:

RewriteEngine ON
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://domain2.tld/$1 [R=301,L]

Replace “domain2.tld” with your domain, and adjust the https if you do not use SSL. If you already have a .htaccess there, rename it to something like “.htaccess.old” to keep it but get it out of the way.

Thank you Jarland, so I think this is working, the problem I came across is that I am currently running wordpress, so there are some htaccess items listed already. I tried to add this to the current htaccess, it gave me an error with too many redirects. Then I created just this file and I think it worked, but I fear I may be missing some of the needed listed items in the htaccess file below? I tried to arrange some of them, but my knowledge on what the wordpress htaccess file is doing is a bit limited.

BEGIN WordPress

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUESTFILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUESTFILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

END WordPress
