Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/NginxProxyManager/nginx-proxy-manager/issues/1642

I have pointed domain name sub.domain.com to NPM as base domain name. But while defining multiple services built on same base domain name, e.g service1.sub.domain.com, service2.sub.domain.com, blog.sub.domain.com, mysql.sub.domain.com, api.sub.domain.com I have to explicitly modify my DNS record every time time for each service as I am using external nameServer, say Cloudflare for the DNS management.

Is there any way so that we only have to point base domain sub.domain.com and rest of the service domains will be taken care by NPM itself at the time of defining proxy hosts on NPM dashboard????

As stated in above description, I would like to keep third party dns proxy like Cloudflare ahead of sub.domain.com for security reason.

btw, thank you for the awesome project @jc21. 👍 #love

Just create a wildcard dns record for *.sub.domain.com and all subdomains of sub.domain.com will be sent to NPM.
