PROGRAMMING

Hi,

I am building a new website which will have a lot of subdomains. So how do I make WordPress categories point to subdomains?

Let's say my domain is website.com. For SEO reasons, I want to have things like:

news.website.com
hobbys.website.com
books.website.com

How do I make the category news point to the subdomain news.website.com, books category to books.website.com, etc?

Thanks.

Unless you have hundreds of these, I would just build the redirects manually.
If you have more than that you could build the addresses in your category template using php - something like category slug plus "." plus site url

  Is it recommended to use plugins that do the redirection instead of .htaccess?
  
  Thanks
