Reverse Proxy Setup
Serve traffic from a custom subpath, from your domain.
If you have a custom setup, in which your WordPress install is on a subpath (e.g. /blog/), you can easily redirect the traffic to our nodes, using a reverse proxy. If your server uses Nginx, the following configuration is necessary:
location /blog/ {
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
proxy_pass http://geo1.presslabs.net;
proxy_redirect off;
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_buffering off;
chunked_transfer_encoding off;
}
Using this setup, you won't benefit from our edge network and we can't guarantee 100% uptime, but you'll benefit from the other features we're offering.
