Multiple domains for a single locale

Question

Hi I'm creating a site that will be used in 4 locales which each have their own domain.

• Australia: project.com.au
• New Zealand: project.co.nz
• South Africa: project.co.za
• USA: project.co

In short, from a content management perspective I only want two locales. English AU and English USA. However, I need the content on the au locale to be accessible from the au,nz,za domains.

Is it possible to have an array of URL for one locale config?

Answer 1

Use a Multi-Environment configuration to set the siteUrl for your two locales, en_au and en_us, independently for each domain like so:

'project.com.au' => array(
    'siteUrl' => array(
        'en_au' => 'http://project.com.au/',
        'en_us' => 'http://project.co/',
    ),
),

'project.co.nz' => array(
    'siteUrl' => array(
        'en_au' => 'http://project.co.nz/',
        'en_us' => 'http://project.co/',
    ),
),

'project.co.za' => array(
    'siteUrl' => array(
        'en_au' => 'http://project.co.za/',
        'en_us' => 'http://project.co/',
    ),
),

'project.co' => array(
    'siteUrl' => array(
        'en_au' => 'http://project.com.au/',
        'en_us' => 'http://project.co/',
    ),
),

You can also set additional environment / domain specific variables in the config file. You could set the currency or the timezone for each domain:

'project.com.au' => array(
    'currency' => 'AUD',
    'timeZone' => 'UTC+10',
    'siteUrl' => array(
        'en_au' => 'http://project.com.au/',
        'en_us' => 'http://project.co/',
    ),
),

This is how you access such a variable in your templates:

{{ craft.config.currency }}
