Serving different templates folder depending on domain name

[shadowmoses]

Hi, I'm trying to serve a different templates folder depending on the domain name.

For example sub.domain.com would load a use a templates-dev folder.

I have got this working with the following code which I found on these forums:

// Map domains to template folders
$config->templates = [
    $production_url => 'templates',      // Production templates
    $sub_url              => 'templates-dev',  // Sub templates
];

// Set template paths dynamically based on HTTP_HOST
if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']) && isset($config->templates[$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']])) {
    $folder = $config->templates[$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']];
    $config->urls->templates = "/site/$folder/";
    $config->paths->templates = dirname(__DIR__) . $config->urls->templates;
}

I've also added the sub domain in the allowed hosts in the config, as follows:

$config->httpHosts = array('www.domain.com', 'sub.domain.com');

This seems to work fine, apart from one slight issue...

The home page is blank, but returns a 200 status code. All other pages work fine. I just can't work out why this is happening. There are no errors in the logs or anything. Nothing to indicate a problem. I'm stumped to why this is happening.

Is there a better way to do this?

Thanks in advance.

First idea... is there an actual homepage template in all folders?

Does your logic always return the correct strings on the homepage and other pages?

Yes the folders are currently identical, templates-dev is an exact clone of templates (which is working just fine).

I'm puzzled why its not working...

I've decided to just create a custom module for this functionailty, still have no idea what the white page is all about though.
