Input Make domain aliases redirect non-GET requests with 308 instead of 301

[spaziodev]

Used Plesk version: Plesk Obsidian 18.0.78 Update #3

One of our websites has recently been relocated to another domain, and the old domain has been added as a domain alias. The alias redirects requests to it with a 301 response, as specified by the "Redirect with the HTTP 301 code" option. However, this causes a huge problem: Many API requests still come to the old URL, and if a POST request or any other non-GET requests arrive, the 301 redirect turns them into GET requests. Currently, i manually edit the file at /etc/nginx/plesk.conf.d/vhosts/domain_name.conf to replace all the "return 301" with "return 308", but this file is regenerated when any system updates occur. Could a new "Redirect non-GET requests with HTTP 308 code" option be added to domain aliases?

Hi, @spaziodev . The request you have submitted on features.plesk.com has been successfully logged. Potential implementation is going to be evaluated, but at this time there's no active initiative to introduce 308 redirects for Alias domains.

This would certainly be a useful feature improvement
