Change domain name

Wekan / General · December 4, 2020 at 7:40pm

I have a Wekan snap installation that is accessible by two different domain names. Most boards were defined when Wekan was accessible by only one domain name (first domain). I can view the boards list and view a board using the second domain, but when I click on an item for details it reloads the board using the first domain name.

Is there a way for boards to be domain name agnostic?

Thanks for the detailed response. I am still a bit confused as I thought the domain name for running Meteor and the Wekan server would be localhost as it runs on localhost:8888 and is accessed from the internet by Apache proxy hosts.

Also, how is root-url set? I searched the snap container but did not see any settings.

          For additional wekan-app container, docker-compose.yml at https://github.com/wekan/wekan has text ROOT_URL=

            Or that https://github.com/wekan/wekan/wiki/Raspberry-Pi page has start-wekan.sh that has ROOT_URL= , or alternatively set it at systemd service file, like mentioned in that wiki page, or init.d

                  Thank you. One further question.

                  I noticed that some of the snap set variables can also be set inside the interface, like the email settings. So it seems that settings entered in the interface admin panel override snap settings. Is this correct?

                    For email, first snap settings should be set, and then same settings to Admin Panel, then at Admin Panel click test sending email. For more info, see https://github.com/wekan/wekan/wiki/Troubleshooting-Mail
