How to have different subdomains as urls for different pages in Codeigniter

Question

I have a single CI application hosted in say abcd.com
and it has different pages like

now the requirement is when user access one.abcd.com as url (in address bar) then it will display abcd.com/pages/one content

EDIT : but the url in address bar should remain one.abcd.com

similarly two.abcd.com should display abcd.com/pages/two content

how that can be achieved ? as routing only accept the path name excluding domain

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.one.abcd\.com$ RewriteRule ^/?$ "http\:\/\/abcd\.com\/pages\/one" [R=301,L] — kamlesh.bar, May 20 '15 at 06:58
basically you can add rule in your htaccess file to achieve this — kamlesh.bar, May 20 '15 at 06:59

have this `RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule .* index.php?/$0 [PT,L]` — Uttara, May 20 '15 at 07:52

Try adding these rules to the htaccess file in your document root:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^(www\.)?abcd\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^([^.]+)\.abcd\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^/?$ /pages/%1 [L]

This will only work if you have *.abcd.com all pointing to the same document root.

can u plz write the above rules specifically for `one.abcd.com` also actually my regex knowledge is very poor – Uttara May 20 '15 at 07:17
@Uttara it works for one.abcd.com, and two.abcd.com, and *anything*.abcd.com except www – Jon Lin May 20 '15 at 07:18
yeah I know you have written the generic rule but just can u plz write it for specific one, and also I have pointed my subdomains to same IP as that of domain, but it shows 403 forbidden – Uttara May 20 '15 at 07:22
@Uttara just replace `[^.]+` with `one` – Jon Lin May 20 '15 at 07:23
its not working :( as I have pointed my `one.abcd.com` to same root folder as `abcd.com` hence when accessing `one.abcd.com` it displays the website from start, also plz look at my EDIT – Uttara May 20 '15 at 07:54
