Fully qualified domain names (FQDN)
The fully qualified domain name (FQDN) for a site on the VIP Platform can be either the www or non-www variant of the domain.
For WordPress single site environments:
- If the FQDN added to an environment’s Domains panel is the
wwwvariant, the site will be reachable atwww.domain.comand requests todomain.comwill automatically redirect towww.domain.com. - If the FQDN added to an environment’s Domains panel is the non-
wwwvariant, the site will be reachable atdomain.comand requests towww.domain.comwill automatically redirect todomain.com.
For WordPress multisite environments:
- Redirects between the
wwwor non-wwwvariants of a domain do not occur automatically. These redirects must be set up in thevip-config.phpfile.
For Node.js environments:
- Redirects between the
wwwor non-wwwvariants of a domain do not occur automatically and must be configured in the application code.
