Hi @Bjunkz,

Thanks for providing the repo.

If I understand correctly, when going to the subdomain [https://tvatt.brfmagelungen.se](https://tvatt.brfmagelungen.se/) it should redirect to an external link.

Additionally, we have a Netlify Next.js template and the Netlify Next.js plugin docs that has additional information on redirect [here](https://github.com/netlify-templates/nextjs-toolbox#redirects) and [here](https://github.com/netlify/netlify-plugin-nextjs/blob/main/docs/redirects-rewrites.md).

Let us know if you have any questions.
