This guide will take you through each step on how to connect your existing Squarespace domain to your Dazzly website. If you don't yet have a domain see our guide to registering a new domain with Dazzly.

time required 10-20 minutes

If you haven't already, please make sure you have signed up to a monthly or annual plan in order to proceed with connecting your domain. View our guide to choosing a plan or pricing page for more information.
Please note: This guide is for existing domains already hosted with Squarespace. For new domains, we recommend registering through Dazzly.

  1. Mag-sign in sa Dazzly at pumunta sa pahina ng 'Domains'

    Una, mag-login sa dazzly at pumunta sa pahina ng 'Domains' sa menu. I-click ang asul na 'Connect Existing Domain' na button.

  2. Idagdag ang iyong umiiral na domain

    In this example we'll be using our existing domain: mountalbert.co.nz

    Ilagay ang iyong umiiral na domain name (nang walang www) at pagkatapos ay pindutin ang 'Add Domain'. Kapag nagawa mo na ito, aabutin ng ilang segundo upang maproseso, pagkatapos nito ay makikita mo na ang iyong domain na idinagdag na may status na: Pending

  3. Click the blue 'Setup Required' na button

    This will open up a window showing you the next steps you need to take. Dazzly will attempt to detect which provider your domain is currently with and direct you to the correct guide.

    Makikita mo ang isang pulang 'required' na label sa tabi ng Step 1 kasama ang unang DNS record na kailangan nating itakda.

    Kung mayroon kang umiiral na website online o kung hindi ka komportable sa paggawa ng mga pagbabago sa iyong domain records, makipag-ugnayan sa iyong lokal na IT support at matutulungan ka nila sa gabay na ito.

  5. Select the DNS Settings page

    Here you will see the DNS settings for your domain, it may look similar to the image below with some Squarespace defaults already set.
    Scroll down to the Custom Records section.

  6. Gumawa ng tala mula sa Hakbang 1

    In Squarespace, i-click ang 'Add Record' na button at piliin ang uri na CNAME mula sa dropdown menu.

    Kopyahin ang teksto mula sa unang linya ng Hakbang 1 sa 'Host' input na kahon ng teksto sa bagong hilera.

    Kopyahin ang teksto mula sa unang linya at i-paste sa Host na field sa Squarespace.

    Kopyahin ang teksto mula sa ikalawang linya sa Hakbang 1 sa 'Alias Data' na field.

    I-click ang 'Save' na button para idagdag ang tala.

  7. Hintayin na ma-verify ang record

    After successfully adding the CNAME record from Step 1, we need to wait a few minutes for Dazzly to verify the record. You can periodically click the '<x id="START_TAG_SPAN" ctype="x-span" equiv-text="&lt;span class=&quot;text-primary&quot;&gt;"/>Check Status<x id="CLOSE_TAG_SPAN" ctype="x-span" equiv-text="&lt;/span&gt;"/>' button to check if it has been verified.

    Please note in rare cases it can take up to 48 hours for Domain record changes to take effect.

    Click the blue 'Check Status' button to verify if the record has been updated.

    If the record is still not verified after 15-30 minutes or so please contact support and we can look into this for you.

  8. Create the record from Step 2

    Kapag na-verify na ang record mula sa Step 1, makikita mo ang berdeng 'complete' label sa tabi ng Step 1. Dapat na ngayong nagpapakita ang Step 2 ng isa pang CNAME record. Kung walang bagong record na nagpapakita, i-click ang 'Check Status' button para muling suriin.

    Sa Squarespace kailangan nating suriin kung may umiiral na 'CNAME' record para sa www. Kung umiiral ang record na ito, kakailanganin mong i-update ito o alisin ito at magdagdag ng bagong record.

    IMPORTANT: If you have an existing website online (not via Dazzly) then changing or removing this record will affect your live website.

    Kung wala pa ang rekord na ito, magdagdag ng bagong rekord na may uri na CNAME.

    In Squarespace, check that the left side under Host is just the www and the type is CNAME. Copy the value from Dazzly into the Alias Data field.

    screenshots showing the www CNAME in Squarespace
    I-verify na www ay nasa unang field sa kaliwa, at ang halaga (nagtatapos sa cloudfront.net) ay nasa pangalawang field.

    Click the 'Save' button to save the record.

  9. Create the record mula sa Hakbang 3

    In Squarespace, check if an 'A' record for '@' already exists. It may look similar to the image below. If it does exist, we will need to update or remove and add a new record to replace it.

    IMPORTANT: If you have an existing website online (not via Dazzly) then changing or removing this record will affect your live website.

    Squarespace ay may default na umiiral na A record(s).

    Click the 'Save' button to update the record.

  10. Wait for the records to be validated

    Like the first record we had to enter, these last 2 records will also take a few minutes to verify. You can click the 'Check Status' button to periodically check this.

    Click the blue 'Check Status' button to see if the records have been updated.

    If the record is still not verified after 15-30 minutes please contact support and we can look into this for you.

  11. Your existing domain is successfully connected to your Dazzly website!

    Kapag na-verify na ang huling 2 record, nakakonekta na ang iyong domain sa iyong Dazzly website. Minsan ay maaaring tumagal ng ilang minuto para ito ay ganap na magkabisa sa buong Internet, ngunit dapat mo nang mai-type ang iyong domain sa iyong browser upang bisitahin ang iyong bagong website!
