[ckan-dev] CKAN + Wordpress

Fri Jan 29 16:41:15 UTC 2016

I don't really know nginx, so unfortunately I can't verify your config. Is
there a specific reason why you want to use nginx?

We have the same requirement (run both WordPress and CKAN on the same
server), and we only use Apache with mod_rewrite and its proxy
functionality.

This is our config:

# Redirect to CKAN server
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule
^((de/|en/|it/|fr/)?(packages|organization|package|dataset|group|resource|related|revision|licenses|rating|ckan-admin|user|login_generic|util|harvest|activity|dashboard|api|search|storage|feeds|fanstatic|images|base)(.*))$
http://127.0.0.1:8080/$0 [P]
</IfModule>

So we run WordPress on Port 80 and CKAN on Port 8080, and some routes are
then proxied to CKAN.
I remember that we also had problems with the login (because CKAN redirect
after the login). Make sure that the site_url is configured correctly.

Another thing you could try is to make nginx rewrite the headers to replace
127.0.0.1:8080 to the external address. With Apache you could do this like
that:

Header edit Location ^http(\:\/\/127.0.0.1:8080.*)$ http$1

Maybe this helps you to find the right solution for nginx.
