Question
nginx catch-all server_name for WordPress Multisite
Is it possible to do something like?
server_name * ;
I don’t want to have to manually add each site like this:
server_name examplewp.com *.examplewp.com shoppingsite.com companysite.org;
As there may be hundreds of sites on a multisite.
This is my current code:
server {
listen 80 ;
server_name mainsite.com *.mainsite.com site1.co site2.co site3.co ;
access_log /srv/www/mainsite.com/logs/access.log;
error_log /srv/www/mainsite.com/logs/error.log;
root /srv/www/mainsite.com/current/web;
index index.php index.htm index.html;
charset utf-8;
rewrite /wp-admin$ $scheme://$host$uri/ last;
rewrite ^/(wp-.*.php)$ /wp/$1 last;
rewrite ^/(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) /wp/$1 last;
add_header X-Content-Type-Options "nosniff" always;
add_header X-Frame-Options SAMEORIGIN;
add_header X-Xss-Protection "1; mode=block" always;
include includes.d/mainsite.com/*.conf;
include wordpress.conf;
location ~ \.php$ {
try_files $uri =404;
include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $realpath_root$fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_param DOCUMENT_ROOT $realpath_root;
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm-wordpress.sock;
}
}
"mainsite.com.conf" [readonly] 41L, 1301C
I tried this and it did’t work:
server {
listen 80 default_server ;
server_name _ ;
access_log /srv/www/mainsite.com/logs/access.log;
error_log /srv/www/mainsite.com/logs/error.log;
root /srv/www/mainsite.com/current/web;
index index.php index.htm index.html;
charset utf-8;
rewrite /wp-admin$ $scheme://$host$uri/ last;
rewrite ^/(wp-.*.php)$ /wp/$1 last;
rewrite ^/(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) /wp/$1 last;
add_header X-Content-Type-Options "nosniff" always;
add_header X-Frame-Options SAMEORIGIN;
add_header X-Xss-Protection "1; mode=block" always;
include includes.d/mainsite.com/*.conf;
include wordpress.conf;
location ~ \.php$ {
try_files $uri =404;
include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $realpath_root$fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_param DOCUMENT_ROOT $realpath_root;
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm-wordpress.sock;
}
}
"mainsite.com.conf" [readonly] 41L, 1301C
I’m a complete nginx noob and any help is much appreciated!!

Problem solved. There was another .conf file (no-default.conf) that also had default_server defined. Once I deleted no-default.conf the catch-all was working.
