Can't change the Subdomain any more

[WAE]

Hi

I picked a subdomain a few weeks ago and haven't published the website yet. I am trying to change it right now and whatever name I use for the subdomain it shows me that it is "taken" even if i make up any thing like ggggbbblll. Any idea how can i fix that?

Thanks

Hello Wassim, and welcome to the Community!

Is there a particular subdomain you were looking to use for the site? We'll check it out here and see what we can do to solve that for you.

Thanks. Was trying to use "FlyNEWS". I am going with the Subdomain for now and if things go well, I will need to upgrade to a private domain.

All right, it does look like flynews.weebly.com is legitimately taken already. I'm sorry, I wish I had better news for you there.

actually after double checking, I wish to go with "NEWS Jet" please

Thanks.

There would also be a newsjet.weebly.com already, I'm afraid.

You may want to try closing Weebly and clearing your browser's cache. That may fix the issue with the subdomain detection.

Thank you!

Hi

I did clear the history after closing my weebly account and came back today to try to change my subdomain but couldn't do it. There seems to be something wrong. Any name I pick is not working any more. Once I type the first letter, I get (Taken) notification....

I want to use (ONE ISLAND AVIATION) as my subdomain....will test the website for few days/weeks and if things are going well I will need to upgrade to a business plan.

Thanks to help me solve this problem.

Thanks for trying, @WAE.  If you try something totally random (like "sdfw3rsdfsdfsdfsdf", for example), does it work?

[WAE]

Thanks Adam. I tried again with random letters but it is same result, always showing me the "taken" result.
