Configure the .env File

After creating the wildcard subdomain and adding the required DNS records, update the following values in your .env file.

If GoBiz is Installed on the Main Domain

Do not include http:// or https://.

Example:

SUB_DOMAIN=www
MAIN_DOMAIN=domain.com

Replace domain.com with your actual domain name.

If GoBiz is Installed on a Subdomain

If your GoBiz installation is running on a subdomain, update the values as follows:

SUB_DOMAIN=subdomain
MAIN_DOMAIN=domain.com

Replace:

• subdomain with your actual subdomain.
• domain.com with your actual domain name.

Note

Do not include http://, https://, or a trailing slash in either value.
