Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/binwiederhier/ntfy/issues/121

i love on ntfy documentation, that all examples on the self-hosted site are customized to the installed domain.

but the config-example for nginx is not customized.

please change it, that the server_name points also to the domain, where ntfy is installed and listens on.

This is very hard to do with mkdocs, because the docs are generated at compile time. I'd have to do some horrible (probably inefficient) JS magic to make this work. I do see the benefit though. Thanks for reporting.

I looked at this again and I don't think it's achievable without significant effort. mkdocs only supports build time varables, and not runtime variables, so I'd have to manually add placeholders in every single example, including code blocks, links and such. That's too much work for too little reward.

Sorry, but I think I'm going to close this ticket. That said, if anyone else were to provide a solution to this, I'm more than happy to merge it.
