We would like the https://europe.foss4g.org/2024/ domain/subdomain to
point to the current FOSS4G Europe event website. We have the website up
and running as a GitHub Pages setup on
FOSS4G Europe 2024 coming from
that repository:
GitHub - LandscapeGeoinformatics/2024_foss4g_europe: Development of the FOSS4G Europe 2024 Website
I am not 100% sure how this can be achieved.
Many former events' websites are hosted in the path addresses, e.g. /2017/
... Is there a reverse proxy at work?

Update 23. Oct:
Shall alternatively be a URL considered as such
https://2024.europe.foss4g.org ? We can rename the repository to 2024 and
then this custom domain might work with GitHub pages directly?

You can have both. Just give me a github.io domain and I can cname it to
2024.europe.foss4g.org and then use that for the /2024

Hi,
Thanks a lot for the advice. We reconfigured the GH pages like so:
https://2024-foss4g-europe.github.io/
So a CNAME 2024.europe.foss4g.org -> 2024-foss4g-europe.github.io ..
.. would be ideal.
Much appreciated.
Best,
Alex

Comment (by robe):
Okay I have it in place now, but it's giving a 404. I don't know if that
is just a delay or something else needs changing. I verified I do have
the cname set to 2024-foss4g-europe.github.io. As I recall, I think you
have to put the 2024.europe.foss4g.org somewhere in the github settings
for it to know to register an ssl. Once that is working, I'll make the
change in europe.foss4g.org to show that instead of the current 2017 it is
showing.

I think it works now:
https://2024.europe.foss4g.org/
I have added this domain into the GH pages config for the repo. You could
now try to do the other forward/redirect if you see it stays stable.
I'd kindly like to ask to keep the issue open for a few more days to catch
and fix little errors that might have slipped in.
Thanks a lot for the help.
Best,
Alex

Would you recommend we verify the domain?
https://docs.github.com/en/pages/configuring-a-custom-domain-for-your-
github-pages-site/verifying-your-custom-domain-for-github-pages
That would require to add an additional DNS TXT record.

Done, I've added a redirect here to 2024.europe.foss4g.org
https://europe.foss4g.org
> Would you recommend we verify the domain?

I think it's more for the benefit of github than usage on website.
I do it for long standing code projects like postgis, geos so people know
that is the official repo.
If you want to do it, just let me know once you have the text to add and
I'll add it.
But like I said, I don't think it's necessary.
For now I'll close this ticket out since all seems to be working as
expected.
