<h2>Custom Domain</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Adding a custom domain allows you to have a domain name attached to your web site. So if you had a domain like <strong>catsknitting.com</strong>, you could have it point to your Neocities site. If you don't have the domain yet, you will have to purchase a domain name from a registrar like <a href="http://www.namecheap.com/?aff=87835" target="_blank">Namecheap</a> first.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<% if current_site.custom_domain_available? %>
|
|
<p>
|
|
We will be using <strong>catsknitting.com</strong> for the examples below.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Step 1</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
First, you need to add an "A record" to point your root domain (sometimes shown with an @ symbol) (catsknitting.com) to the following IP address:
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><code>198.51.233.1</code></p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Step 2 (optional)</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Now you need to add an "AAAA record" that also points to your root domain. This is for IPv6 support. Use this address for the AAAA record:
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><code>2620:2:6000::bad:dab:cafe</code></p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Step 3</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Add the domain name to the box below (just the <strong>catsknitting.com</strong>, don't add any subdomains), and your domain should come online within 5 minutes!
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<form method="POST" action="/settings/<%= @site.username %>/custom_domain">
|
|
<%== csrf_token_input_html %>
|
|
<input name="domain" type="text" placeholder="catsknitting.com" value="<%= @site.domain %>">
|
|
<br>
|
|
<input class="btn-Action" type="submit" value="Update Domain">
|
|
</form>
|
|
<% else %>
|
|
<strong>Custom domains require a Supporter account. <a href="/supporter">Upgrade now</a>.</strong>
|
|
<% end %>
