Connect your own domain (e.g. www.my-choir.com)

What is this?

With your own domain, your choir's website is reachable at your address, for example www.my-choir.com, not only at chorilo.com/w/…

How to connect a domain

1. Click Ensembles in the sidebar, pick your choir and then Choir settings.
2. Select Public website and scroll to Use Custom Domain (Optional).
3. Create a DNS record with your domain provider:
   • Option 1: A record pointing to 46.225.8.57
   • Option 2: CNAME pointing to custom.chorilo.com
4. Enter your domain under Domain, for example www.my-choir.com.
5. Click Save and check.
6. If the record is found, “Domain verified successfully!” appears. Otherwise you see a notice and check again later.

DNS changes can take up to 24 hours.

What happens after verification

• The SSL certificate is created automatically as soon as the domain is verified and the website is online.
• The website is reachable at your domain. If the variant with or without www. also points to Theatilo via DNS, it works too.
• The address at chorilo.com/w/… keeps working.

If you change the domain later, it has to be verified again.

Permission

You need the permission Manage website. Your own domain costs nothing extra; you book the domain itself with a provider of your choice.

Tips

• Choose a short domain that is easy to remember.
• CNAME for www: for www.my-choir.com the CNAME record is usually the easiest.
• If you run into problems, your domain provider's support can help you create the record.
