my setting: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tools/nginx?domains.0.server.domain=dl.noa.codes&domains.0.server.documentRoot=%2F&domains.0.server.wwwSubdomain=true&domains.0.https.letsEncryptEmail=himesaka%40noa.codes&domains.0.routing.index=index.html&domains.1.server.domain=schoolbot.noa.codes&domains.1.server.documentRoot=%2F&domains.1.server.wwwSubdomain=true&domains.1.https.letsEncryptEmail=himesaka%40noa.codes&domains.1.routing.index=index.html&global.https.sslProfile=modern&global.nginx.user=

if I connect to schoolbot.noa.codes, it redirects to dl.noa.codes I don’t know what’s going on, I haven’t set up web server myself before.

Hi @NoaHimesaka,

You have the same DocumentRoot which might be the root of the issue.

If you want to have different applications/websites for your two subdomains, you need to create the websites in different folders on your droplet and specify the DocumentRoot.
