Custom domain and SSL

By default a page lives on the project’s service address. A custom domain takes a couple of DNS records; the certificate is issued automatically.

DNS records

At your registrar add a CNAME record pointing to the address shown in the project settings. For a root domain use ALIAS or ANAME if your provider supports them.

dns
; root domain — ALIAS/ANAME if the registrar supports it
@ ALIAS sites.shopiforge.app.
www CNAME sites.shopiforge.app.
; subdomain — a plain CNAME is enough
shop CNAME sites.shopiforge.app.

Certificate and verification

Once the domain is saved the service verifies the records and issues a certificate — usually within a few minutes. While verification runs, the page keeps working on the service address.

TIP

DNS caches live up to 24 hours. If the browser still shows the old page, check the record with dig or a public DNS checker instead of reloading the tab.
