Can I use manual DNS if my registrar is not supported by Domain Connect?

Yes. If your registrar isn’t supported, you can manually add a CNAME pointing to sites.ludicrous.cloud or an A record pointing to 162.159.140.166 at your registrar, then add the domain inside BizStackPro.

What DNS records are required to connect my domain manually?

You must create either a CNAME for your root or subdomain pointing to sites.ludicrous.cloud or an A record pointing to 162.159.140.166. Avoid conflicting A/CNAME records for the same host.

Why must Cloudflare’s proxy be disabled?

BizStackPro domain connections do not support Cloudflare’s proxy mode. Set the Proxy status to DNS only for the A/CNAME record so the connection can be verified.

How do I add my domain inside BizStackPro after updating DNS?

Go to Settings > Domains, click + Connect a Domain, enter your domain (with or without www), then choose Add record manually. After BizStackPro detects the A/CNAME record, the domain will connect.

Can Domain Connect be used to host my domain?

No. Domain Connect only automates DNS changes. You must still own and manage your domain with a registrar.

Can I set a default page so my site loads at domain.com instead of domain.com/home?

Yes. After connecting your domain, go to Settings > Domains, click Manage, then Edit Domain and choose a default funnel step or website page.

How to Setup & Configure a Domain or Subdomain Using Domain Connect or Manual DNS – BizStackPro Help

Setup & Configure a Domain or Subdomain

Q: What is Domain Connect and which providers does it support?

Domain Connect automates DNS configuration when connecting your domains or subdomains to BizStackPro. It supports GoDaddy, Cloudflare, and IONOS for domain connections.

Q: How long do DNS changes take to propagate?

DNS changes can take up to 24 hours to fully propagate, though they often update faster. If the connection fails initially, wait and try again later.

Connect your domain or subdomain to BizStackPro using one-click Domain Connect (GoDaddy, Cloudflare, IONOS) or manual DNS (A and CNAME records). This guide walks you through both methods so you can launch funnels, websites, and WordPress installs on your own branded URLs.

Connecting Your Brand to Funnels, Websites, and WordPress Correctly

Domain setup problems are one of the most common causes of broken websites, SSL errors, failed page loads, and verification issues when launching funnels or branded web assets.

BizStackPro supports both automated Domain Connect setup and manual DNS configuration so domains and subdomains can route traffic correctly to funnels, websites, and WordPress installs.

Incorrect DNS records, conflicting settings, or unsupported proxy configurations can prevent domains from connecting properly and create downtime or inconsistent visitor experiences.

This guide explains how to connect domains using Domain Connect or manual DNS records, troubleshoot common connection issues, configure subdomains, and assign default pages inside BizStackPro.

Before updating DNS records, it helps to understand the difference between automated Domain Connect setup and manual DNS configuration.

Domain Connect Overview

Domain Connect automates the DNS configuration needed to connect your domain or subdomain to BizStackPro. Instead of manually creating DNS records, supported registrars can apply the required records for you with just a few clicks.

Supported providers: GoDaddy, Cloudflare, and IONOS.
Cloudflare tip: Your BizStackPro A/CNAME record must be set to DNS only (proxy disabled) so verification succeeds.

No manual DNS editing: Reduce errors from record conflicts or typos.
Faster setup: Connect domains and subdomains quickly.
Scalable: Great for funnels, websites, and WordPress connections.

Important: Domain Connect is only for connecting domains (DNS automation). It does not host your domain—you still need a registrar.

Connect Using Domain Connect

Go to Settings → Domains.
Click + Connect a Domain.
Enter your domain or subdomain (example: mydomain.com or help.mydomain.com).
Click Continue.
If supported, click Authorize and approve the DNS changes in your registrar portal.
Return to BizStackPro and complete the connection.

Propagation note: DNS updates can appear quickly, but sometimes take longer. If it doesn’t connect immediately, wait and try again.

Domain Connect for WordPress Hosting

If you’re using BizStackPro WordPress hosting, you can often connect your domain using an automated Domain Connect flow (no manual DNS required).

Go to Sites → WordPress.
Select the WordPress site you want to connect.
Click Add Domain and enter your domain.
Click Auto Configure to start Domain Connect.

Manual DNS Setup: Step 1 (Registrar)

If your registrar is not supported—or you prefer manual control—you can configure DNS yourself. Choose one of the options below and avoid record conflicts for the same host.

Option A (Recommended): CNAME

Create a CNAME record that points your root or subdomain to:

sites.ludicrous.cloud

Option B (Alternative): A record

Create an A record for your root domain that points to:

162.159.140.166

Avoid conflicts: Do not point the same host (root or www) to multiple destinations. Remove old A/CNAME records for that host before adding new ones.

Cloudflare users: Set the BizStackPro record to DNS only (proxy disabled) so verification works.

Manual DNS Setup: Step 2 (BizStackPro)

After updating DNS at your registrar, connect the domain inside BizStackPro:

Go to Settings → Domains.
Click + Connect a Domain.
Enter your domain (with or without www).
Select Add record manually.
Confirm BizStackPro detects the A/CNAME record, then complete the connection.

If you see a “couldn’t find CNAME/A record” error:

Verify the record host is correct (root/@, www, or your subdomain).
Remove conflicting records for the same host.
If using Cloudflare, ensure the record is DNS only.
Wait for propagation, then try again.

Propagation timing: DNS changes can take up to 24 hours depending on provider/TTL. If it fails initially, wait and retry later.

Set a Default Page (No /home Needed)

If you want your site to load at domain.com (without a path like /home), set a default page after connecting:

Go to Settings → Domains.
Click Manage next to your domain.
Select Edit Domain.
Choose a Default funnel step or website page.
Save changes.

Launch on your branded domain

Use Domain Connect for speed or manual DNS for full control—either way, you can run funnels, websites, and WordPress on the domain your audience recognizes.
