Change the domain name I just purchased today

I purchased a domain name today from another company but decided against it. I came to Square and purchased one here but I need to change it or should I say add a character. Is that possible or do I need to cancel it and redo now that the original one with the other company is vacant?

@fltrker27Take a look at @Joe Best Answer on how you can edit your Domain. This is a great thread as other sellers asked similar questions. Once you get to your site address settings, you can enter the subdomain that you want to appear ie: whattup.sayra.com.

Hi there, @keith1950 👋 Thanks for reaching out to us here on the Seller Community! Happy to have you join us! Welcome!

Are you specifically looking to renew a domain purchased through Weebly? Or is your domain from another provider?

I will keep an eye out for your response, but in the meantime I have merged your post into an existing thread with instructions on how to manage domains from the Weebly dashboard. Most domain renewals can be accessed there!

Let me know!

Question regarding the SSL - is that also regenerated in the process of changing the domain name? I'd like to test my site using a subdomain, then move it live once all testing is complete. The SSL support area says the SSL is generated when you first publish the site...so if you change the domain name, then the current SSL would be invalid if it's based on the current setting. Is a new one generated when you publish again under a new domain name?

Hey @ZenWarrior and welcome to the Community!

I checked in with the Weebly team and they said it should make a new one, but it might be best if you un-publish the site and then publish again to make sure it generates one for the new domain.

If you’re just changing from a free subdomain to a custom domain then you don’t need to do anything special.

Can I change my domain but keep current web page?

Re: How to change my domain name

isabelle — Mon, 14 Dec 2020 17:23:33 GMT

Hey @Prodigyoutdoors!

Hmmm. Do you mean keep your website design/items/settings but just alter your domain URL? If so, yes you can!

Please go to Square Dashboard > Online > General Settings > Site Address:

Did that work? Let me know if you have any other questions! ⚡️

trying to renew my domain

Unitylifestylez — Mon, 21 Dec 2020 19:10:03 GMT

I recently was trying to renew my domain and upgrade my account to include shipping. but it looks like I brought my domain again instead of renewing it. I have one listed that will expire in January and another active one that expires in December 2021. I don't want my website interrupted or down at no point.
