Hi Massimo, Would you recommend to setup anything on routes.py? I have the same question of Carlos... In my application all users will select a username and a subdomain will be available user1.example.com user2.example.com
Every time that they use this URL it would go to a specific controller function (default/mypage) using their usernames as arguments but now showing off (it is not a redirect). Example: user1.example.com would open default/mypage -> the personal page of this user user1.example.com/articles would open default/articles of this user and so on, without lose the subdomain. What is the recommended implementation? Use request.env.http_host or routes.py? If it is routes could you provide a quick example? Thanks in advance!
