It's sorta already doing that. If you want the "bank" homepage then
you have to go to site1.com/home or site2.com/home. I don't think the
Router is equipped for routing by hostname (could be wrong though).
If you absolutely have to have the 2 sites mixed together and have the
domains mirror each other, except at document root, then your best bet
would be to just use mod_rewrite and add a rule for document root.
Otherwise, you'll have to check the hostname in PagesController and
serve the correct homepage.
Personally, I would just use one domain, making the other domain a
redirect, and use prefix routing. For instance:
bank.com would be the active domain, with pages like:
bank.com/contact-us
bank.com/careers
bank.com/privacy
bank.com/corp would be the prefix for all the bancorp stuff, e.g.:
bank.com/corp/contact-us
bank.com/corp/careers
bank.com/corp/privacy
This is much more intuitive to the user, instead of having 2 domains
with similarly-named pages like:
site#.com/privacy
site#.com/privacy_policy
site#.com/contact-us
site#.com/contact_us
