I have two domains I'd like to use for the same blogger page (some-example.bloger.com) on two sites.

One is blog.example.ca, the other domain is blog.meta-example.com

Both should end up displaying the same blog, except I can't find a way to put two blogs together.

Other than forwarding the sub-domain to go to a new site, do I have any way to make this work?

If you can know how to use own sitename with Blogger Service, you can imagine to create CNAME on CNAME, as result - both names will be served by the same Blogger blog.

You have only test will sites save own domain in links or not (I'm not sure in handling of HOST request by G)

  • That's a pretty cool idea, I'm going to give it a shot. I won't know for a few days, but it sounds good.

  • Don't forget configure some parts from blog's settings (I'm not sure is it needed, but...) and AFAICS possibility to have only one external URL for blog presented

Are they on the same server? Because if so you can modify your turbopanel.conf via SSH

Mine is located in etc/httpd/conf.d/turbopanel.conf but yours may differ.

It should look something like this:

NameVirtualHost 123.45.67.89:80

<VirtualHost 123.45.67.89:80>
    ServerAdmin "[email protected]"
    ServerName site1.com
    ServerAlias www.site1.com
    MIMEMagicFile /dev/null
    CustomLog logs/site1.com_access_log "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-agent}i\""
    ErrorLog logs/site1.com_error_log

    DocumentRoot "/home/site1/public_html"
    <Directory "/home/site1/public_html">
        Options +Indexes +FollowSymLinks
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
        AllowOverride All
    </Directory>

    Alias /usage "/home/site1/public_html/usage"
    <Location /usage>
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
    </Location>
</VirtualHost>

NameVirtualHost 123.45.67.89:80

<VirtualHost 123.45.67.89:80>
    ServerAdmin "[email protected]"
    ServerName site2.com
    ServerAlias www.site2.com
    MIMEMagicFile /dev/null
    CustomLog logs/site2.com_access_log "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-agent}i\""
    ErrorLog logs/site2.com_error_log

    DocumentRoot "/home/site2/public_html" # <--------- Change this
    <Directory "/home/site2/public_html">
        Options +Indexes +FollowSymLinks
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
        AllowOverride All
    </Directory>

    Alias /usage "/home/site2/public_html/usage"
    <Location /usage>
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
    </Location>
</VirtualHost>

Change the DocumentRoot of the second site to the same as the first

You can also set up a symlink with

ln -s /site1/public_html /site2/public_html

This will make public_html in site2 look to /site1/public_html

  • Can you really ssh into blogger.com? I wouldn't have thought so.
