My problem is about www and non www urls. I use nginxCP, a distribution of nginx that includes cPanel and WHM.

I need to be able to surf my sites hosted by this server with both non-www and www urls.
Ex: when I type example.com I surf this site with the When I type example.com, I surf this site WITHOUT the I don't want a redirect between the two.

I have included my config files for nginx and a site's vhost (that is automatically generated by nginxCP).

/etc/nginx/nginx.config:

I resolved it after a deep study of my sites. In my server I have two sites: the first is written by me (a managerial software), and the second uses WordPress. I noticed out that the first site can be surfed with www and without-www, so I deduced that the problem wasn't the web server, but the CMS. After some researches on the web about this thing, I found out that WordPress (and also Magento) forces all the urls to be non-www (or the contrary, depending on WP version).
I fixed this problem with WP by adding this few line of code at the end of wp-config.php file, in the site's root:

$hostname = $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'];
define('WP_SITEURL', 'http://' . $hostname);
define('WP_HOME', 'http://' . $hostname);


In Magento I can fix this problem with these methods: docs.nexcess.net/article/changing-magento-base-urls.html
Ps: if you want to test the non-CMS site's urls are www.merlinimediazioni.com and merlinimediazioni.com ; the CMS site's urls are www.mattiamerlini.it and mattiamerlini.it . When you load one of these urls you can notice that if you have inserted mattiamerlini.it the url remain with www, and viceversa for non-www.

Thank you for your time and help

Have a nice weekend
