    Hello.

    This is probably a silly question with a simple answer, but I can't figure it out.

    I have a managed Wordpress set up on a bare domain.

    https:// something .com.

    It works fine.

    I also want www. something .com to point to the same site.

    That I can't get it to do.

    The DNS is set up with two A records pointing to the server. One bare, and one with a wildcard *. something .com.

    If I delete the site and put it on a subdomain, it also works fine.

    When I try to add a redirect in the Cloudron app setting the app just freezes with the message "Configuring - Waiting for DNS propagation" and stays there for a very long time before crashing.

    How do I get a Wordpress site that has both a blank and a www subdomain pointing to it?

      @Razumasu simply add www subdomain as a redirect in the app location settings

      https://docs.cloudron.io/apps/#redirections

      I use Cloudron with Gandi & Hetzner

        I figured it out. The problem was an extremely slow DNS update. It works now by adding a redirect 🙂
