nginx hack for multiple conditions
if ($request_uri = /) {

}
if ($host ~* teambox.com) {
set $test "${test}B";
}
if ($http_cookie !~* "auth_token") {
set $test "${test}C";
}
if ($test = ABC) {
proxy_pass http://teambox-cms.heroku.com;

Seems, you are not familiar with map, or do not like it. More short and elegant:

":" is used just like delimiter, you can use any other symbol not used in checked variables.

map "$request_uri:$host:$http_cookie" $test {
    default 0;
    "/:teambox.com:auth_token"  1;
}

server {
    if ( $test ) {
      proxy_pass http://teambox-cms.heroku.com;
      break;
    }
}

@songsfromthewood Actually no, yours does not match "test.teambox.com" while the original post does.

Need explanation.... what actually this does:
if ($host ~* teambox.com) {
set $test "${test}+teambox.com";
}
Does it takes "this".teambox.com or what? Thanks!

How to write this condition?

if ($host *.teambox.com) {
set $subdomain_name = ?;
}

Thanks!

Awesome!!!! Thanks!
If somebody needs an explanation what the code does is it sequentially appends different letters to one variable.
When all the letters are present that means that all the required conditions have been met.
