Hi,
I’m referring to the new update and the Webflow blog article that states ‘…you can add a domain super-big-client.agency.com…’
Does this mean I can add sub domains to my Webflow hosted custom domain. eg have my templates in webflow show as template1.mydomain.com instead of template1.webflow.com?
Thanks
Hi @andyuk, thanks for the question, that is possible. You just need to add a custom domain to your site, from the Hosting Tab, and add the domain as template1.mydomain.com. You also have to have the primary domain mydomain.com attached to at least one site in your dashboard.
If you will add a subdomain to a separate site, for example, site A is mydomain.com and site B is template1.mydomain.com, there will be two separate custom domain charges of $4.99 per custom domain. If the subdomain is used on the same site as the main domain, there is no additional charge.
I hope this helps, if not, let me know. Cheers, Dave
Hi,
Sort of understand, I went into the hosting tab of my custom domain, webflow hosted site and added a sub-domain of test.mymaindomain.com.
Not really sure what to do with it. Need to publish it but can’t because I need to add DNS records, but i’ve already did this for my main domain. Even then, does this enable me to display templates (located within my Webflow dashboard) on a sub of my main domain??
Thanks
Hi @andyuk, what is the main domain ? Which site is that attached to in Webflow? Are you wanting the template1.mydomain.com to point to the same site as the main domain, or a different site?
If you want to use a domain like template1.mydomain.com, then first setup at least one site on your site dashboard that has mydomain.com attached to it. Then on second site, in the hosting tab, add the domain template1.mydomain.com.
After doing that, you can republish your second site and the new domain should work. You already need to have DNS settings setup for the main domain to point to Webflow before you create any new subdomains… Here is our instruction for that:
If you get stuck with the domains, please contact us at support@webflow.com.
