Wordpress - Multiple domains pointing to same site

Hi! how are you? If the task you request is from a client.com.br redirect it to a client.com, then you must configure it from DNS. That is, through the DNS Registry Editor, you must redirect every domain to client.com. I use the CloudFlare system a lot to configure the DNS of each domain.

Hello everyone!

A client of mine owns multiple domains ( let's say: client.com, client.com.br, client.com.uy, client.uy) I need to make all the domains point to the wordpress installation on client.com, but from what I could gather this is not as easy to do with Wordpress as with a regular website.

Some people have pointed me towards Wordpress Multisite, but I'm not entirely sure that's what would fix my issue since (from what I could understand) WP Multisite deals with multiple wordpress sites on a single domain. I just need the client's multiple domains pointing to a single Wordpress installation.

Is there any way to do this? Thanks to everyone in advance for taking the time to read this and helping out!

Easier than you think without use of plugins.

You can point as many domains as you want to same WP install without needing to change site name as it's dynamically generated
Following you have 2 options of doing it: 1st with checking for use of SSL and second direct without any checks
Just find and replace in your wp-config.php following definitions enclosed between star lines (note that you will only find siteurl and home not request_url)

Code:

1st option
************************************

define('SP_REQUEST_URL', ($_SERVER['HTTPS'] ? 'https://' : 'http://') . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']); // used to define use of SSL or not

define('WP_SITEURL', SP_REQUEST_URL);
define('WP_HOME', SP_REQUEST_URL);

**************************************

2nd option
**************************************

define('WP_SITEURL', $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']);
define('WP_HOME', $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']);

**************************************

Edit: when you access your website dashboard by using any domain you'll see in Settings -> General that your domain is automatically changed to reflect issuer (either domain.com or domain.net for example)

2nd edit: playing with definitions and keeping one static will allow you retain your original host that you want static
