Hello,
I have a first website with this configuration:
server {
server_name mywebsite.com;
root /var/www/website/prod;
...
}
and a second one like this with the same root folder:
server {
server_name pro.mywebsite.com;
root /var/www/website/prod;
...
}
And the only problem is they have the same robots.txt file.
Is it possible to tell the second server to link the file robots.txt to another file like robots-pro.txt?
And by the way the url http://pro.mywebsite.com/robots.txt would open the file robots-pro.txt.
Thanks, Vincent.

Hello,
Yes, this is doable with Nginx aliases.
In each server block you could specify the following:
location /robots.txt { alias /var/www/html/site1-robots.txt ; }
And then just change the site1
part depending on the name of your file for each site accordingly.
Hope that this helps! Regards, Bobby
