Custom domain

By default your academy is reachable at a platform-provided address. You can put
it on your own domain instead — for example learn.youracademy.com.

Add your domain

  1. Go to Settings → Domain.
  2. Enter the domain (or subdomain) you want to use.
  3. The page shows the DNS record you need to add at your domain provider —

typically a CNAME pointing your subdomain at the platform.

Verify

  1. Add the shown DNS record at your registrar (GoDaddy, Cloudflare, Namecheap,

whoever you bought the domain from).

  1. Back in Settings → Domain, the status pill shows pending until the

record is found, then flips to verified.

  1. DNS changes can take anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours to propagate —

if it's still pending after that, re-check the record matches exactly.

Once verified, your branded site and the student app links use your domain.

Troubleshooting

  • Stuck on pending — the DNS record doesn't match. Re-copy it exactly; watch

for a trailing dot or a typo in the subdomain.

  • Works then breaks — your registrar may have a proxy/CDN toggle that

interferes. If in doubt, set the record to "DNS only" rather than proxied.
