How can I host an Editor X website on a domain's path?

“How to connect your domain” only tells you how you could host an Editor X website on the entire domain. My use case is a little different. I would like to host/connect Editor X website on a path on my domain and keep using my domain as it is to access the already existing content.

For example:
Instead of hosting Editor X website on www.example.com, I would like it to be hosted on www.example.com/big-example

Is that even possible? I could not find any article related to it.
Thanks

Hi @himanshu ,

I’m Shiri from the Editor X team, thanks for reaching out. Here you can find an article on connecting an existing subdomain to your Editor X site.

Hi Shiri,

Thank you for your response. I understand that a subdomain connection is possible but I would still like to explore the possibility of having Editor X website on a path on my main domain.

Usually one would export the website and serve from the path but I think exporting the website is not an option in Editor X

The other way would be to use a reverse proxy to serve the content from my editor x website on that path. I am convinced that this solution would simply work but I curious about what I will lose and how the static files that are loaded will get affected.

hey @shirim ,

Actually my question is quite the same. i want to connect a domain i own exampleX.com to a subdomain exampleY.com /abc of my (premium) primary domain on editor X… how can i do that ? Actually exempley.com/abc is a called a subdomain or a page ? Anyway, I want to understand how to direct a domain to a page of my (premium) primary domain on editor X.

Currently, this is a feature request for domains.

As mentioned by some of the other comments, you can however connect your site to a subdomain, for example shop.domain.com with the shop page being the Editor X site you want to connect.

Do you still need help?

So you have a website www.example.com/ on WordPress for example and want to show a Wix site on www.example.com/big-example ?
Then you could use an iFrame to show the Wix site.
