Hi Can we please remove the following server…

Hi! Can we please remove the following server blocks from wordcampWordCamp WordCamps are casual, locally-organized conferences covering everything related to WordPress. They're one of the places where the WordPress community comes together to teach one another what they’ve learned throughout the year and share the joy. Learn more.-web.conf?

Also this blockBlock Block is the abstract term used to describe units of markup that, composed together, form the content or layout of a webpage using the WordPress editor. The idea combines concepts of what in the past may have achieved with shortcodes, custom HTML, and embed discovery into a single consistent API and user experience. from wordcampWordCamp WordCamps are casual, locally-organized conferences covering everything related to WordPress.

I presume these sites will all still work after these rules are removed, just some other way?

For the non-wordcamp.org domains, I presume the idea will be to handle the redirect elsewhere as they don’t have SSLSSL Secure Socket Layer - Encryption from the server to the browser and back. Prevents prying eyes from seeing what you are sending between your browser and the server. certificates?

  Correct, we’ve migrated the legacy code into themes that are now running inside the main WordCamp.org network as opposed to secondary WordPress installs in a different root. This allows us to retire the secondary installs and proceed with the URLURL A specific web address of a website or web page on the Internet, such as a website’s URL www.wordpress.org format change for WordCampWordCamp WordCamps are casual, locally-organized conferences covering everything related to WordPress.

  Re. SSLSSL Secure Socket Layer - Encryption from the server to the browser and back. Prevents prying eyes from seeing what you are sending between your browser and the server., actually I’m not sure yet. I thought about forcing SSL on WordCamp.org via nginxNGINX NGINX is open source software for web serving, reverse proxying, caching, load balancing, media streaming, and more. It started out as a web server designed for maximum performance and stability. In addition to its HTTP server capabilities, NGINX can also function as a proxy server for email (IMAP, POP3, and SMTP) and a reverse proxy and load balancer for HTTP, TCP, and UDP servers. https://www.nginx.com/., but that would break year.city.wordcamp.org subdomains which will not be covered by the wildcard certificate, so I thought of handling it with PHPPHP PHP (recursive acronym for PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor) is a widely-used open source general-purpose scripting language that is especially suited for web development and can be embedded into HTML. http://php.net/manual/en/intro-whatis.php. instead, where we already handle year.city.wordcamp.org redirects to city.wordcamp.org/year, so I think additional domains can just follow the same pattern.

    I couldn’t tell from this response that “wordcampsf.org wordcampsf.com *.wordcampsf.org *.wordcampsf.com” will still work. My comment about SSLSSL Secure Socket Layer - Encryption from the server to the browser and back. Prevents prying eyes from seeing what you are sending between your browser and the server. was that https://wordcampsf.com would now cause an error, while previously it had nothing listening on port 443. (Minor detail, sure.)

      Someone would have to explicitly request those domains with httpsHTTPS HTTPS is an acronym for Hyper Text Transfer Protocol Secure. HTTPS is the secure version of HTTP, the protocol over which data is sent between your browser and the website that you are connected to. The 'S' at the end of HTTPS stands for 'Secure'. It means all communications between your browser and the website are encrypted. This is especially helpful for protecting sensitive data like banking information., and yes, they’ll be served with the *.wordcamp.org wildcard certificate. They’ll see the same behavior when explicitly requesting year.city.wordcamp.org hosts via https.
