Set up Discord forwarding via domain
Join Discord Server via domain
It is assumed that an own domain as well as an own webserver/webspace is available.
To be able to reach a discord server via your own domain, a .htaccess file with a corresponding forwarding rule is required.
For example, the domain example-example.de/discord should enable a forwarding to the discord server.
Step 1
Create the subdirectory "discord" on the web space/web server:
Step 2
Creating the ".htaccess" file on the web space/web server:
Step 3
Create the forwarding rule in the ".htaccess" file:
#
Important with the forwarding rule is that the original domain is "exchanged" for another one. So in the forwarding rule "example-example.de" has to be replaced by the own domain and "https://discord.gg/A6e4jyg" by the own discord server address.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} (www\.)?beispiel-example.de
RewriteRule (.*) https://discord.gg/A6e4jyg [R=301,L]
Values that must be changed:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} (www\.)?***OWN-DOMAIN***
RewriteRule (.*) ***OWN-DISCORD-DOMAIN*** [R=301,L]
After saving, the forwarding is immediately active.
Step 4
Test forwarding:
If the domain/discord is now accessed, a redirection to Discord should take place.
