Help with code

Server NGINX
1

Hi All,

I have the following code:

            location = /favicon.ico {
                    if ($host = "abc.com"){
                        return 301 "http://www.abc.com/favicon.ico";
                    }
            }

If I make a request to abc.com/favicon.ico I get a 301 and then a 200 OK

However the issue is that if I make a request to xyz.abc.com/favicon.ico
I get a 404 as it passes the first match statement but fails the second
and trys to get the favicon resource from the nginx root directory

Is there a better way of doing it so it continues on to be evaluated by
the other rules? or Is there a better way of writing this part of the
code?

Thanks in advance.

Why should the check process even go inside the if, given that
xyz.abc.com is not host abc.com?
