How to use multiple domain with one linode.

I have a multisite wordpress website already set up on my server.

Now, I want to add another domain to the same server.

I don't seem to see a doc that addresses that.

How can I add another domain to the same linode?

Hi @Olammy - We're not a registrar so if you need a new domain we aren't able to provide one.

If you already have a domain, you can either point it to your Linode's IP address using the DNS manager of your registrar or our own DNS Manager:

https://www.linode.com/docs/products/networking/dns-manager/

From there, you should be able to add the site from the WordPress back-end. Once WordPress Multisite's enabled, then it's all managed through the back-end much like the individual site's posts are.

From the menu at the top of the screen, select 'My Sites > Network Admin > Sites'.

Hi @mjones, thanks for the reply but that is not the case, I am not trying to add a domain to the multisite but to the Linode.

I want to add another domain on the same server.

I have pointed the domain to the Linode nameservers and set the name-virtual-host but the new domain redirects to the 'domain name' registration page of the multisite that I had set up.
