Changing Webflow.io domain

[Tristan2024 (Iliad Tristan)]

Hello All,

I am having trouble changing my Webflow.io domain…
I think the name that I want is somehow cached in memory…

The name is “sunshine-landscape”…
I think the issue that I had once created a project by this name but didn’t like it and deleted it… then I created new projects with a date name since I couldn’t use the original one before… well, I need that one original name.

Is there someway to delete that history? I cannot find where that can be done.

I own the domain “https://sunshine-landscape.com” on GoDaddy - does it matter?
Do I just keep the current name of “0524-sunshine” that I made when I started this work and my domain from GoDaddy will work without any issue?

Thank you very much!

The webflow .io shortname is just for staging purposes.

If you archived a site with the shortname sunshine-landscape then yes that will be reserved still. You’d have to contact Webflow support.

However it doesn’t matter if you’re using a custom domain, so once you’ve setup your hosting plan and added sunshine-landscape.com you’re all set.
