Custom Domains

This feature is available on the Premium and Enterprise plans.
By default, your public docs will be available at a URL such as acme.slite.page.

Setting up a custom domain lets you overwrite that, and for example, use docs.acme.com instead.

How to set it up?

    Click your team logo icon in the top left, then click "Settings".
    Head to "Public sharing" from the menu on the left.

Adding your intended subdomain on Slite

    Type your custom domain, starting with the subdomain (no https:// required).
    You'll set up the CNAME record with your domain host, in the next step.
    Set a public homepage for your custom domain. (This step is required.)
    Click Save!


Getting the CNAME record set up with your domain host

To connect your own domain to Slite, follow these steps carefully. The exact instructions may vary depending on your domain host, but the core process remains the same.
    Create a CNAME Record
  • In your DNS provider’s settings, locate the section for adding a CNAME record.
  • For the CNAME "Value" or "Destination", enter exactly: custom.slite.page .
    Avoid this common mistake
DO NOT enter your own Slite domain for the CNAME.Always type exactly: custom.slite.page. Your domain won't work otherwise.
Cross Mark Wrong:  myteam.slite.com  Check Mark Button Correct:  custom.slite.page 
    Filling in the "Name" or "Subdomain" field
  • If your provider ask for a a field "name" or "subdomain" this is where you define the subdomain you want to use.
  • Examples: help.yoursite.com or kb.yourdomain.com
    Waiting for PropagationDNS changes can take up to 24 hours to propagate, though it usually happens faster.

Making sure that the CNAME record is properly set up

To confirm that everything is set up properly, head over to the following URL:
  •  Dig (DNS lookup) 
Then, enter your domain (e.g.  slite.sthack.fr ) and press "Return". If it says "Record not found!", go through the steps in this doc again if you have already waited 24 hours.
