If an event has its own domain, is that only configurable using a proxy or the Web server used for Indico, or does Indico allow to configure such a domain for an event?
There’s currently no support for event-specific (sub-)domains. I’d be surprised if it worked fine with just webserver-based redirects/rewrites.
What we do:
conference.tldomain → redirect to indico/event/id
“Hiding” the main indico instance would be really tricky. Especially links in mails etc. will always get generated with the configured indico hostname.
Thank you for the replies. In the end, we added the domain to the SSL certificate, and configured the redirect in the httpd configuration. (Don’t forget to specify SSLCertificateFile and SSLCertificateKeyFile for the virtual host.)
