<![CDATA[How to Change a Local Domain to a Public One in Cloudron?]]>Hi everyone,
I have set up a LAMP application on Cloudron using a local domain on my own server through a VPN, and everything seems to be working fine after editing my computer's hosts file.

However, I would like to know the correct procedure to change the domain to a public one when the application moves to production.

What steps should I follow?

If so it's probably just a matter of waiting for propagation like it says. Can be really quick, can take hours (or technically even days but that's pretty rare)

Think it should be ok, this set up is fairly common .

As a result, I'm using self-signed certificates. When I switch to a public domain, obtaining an SSL certificate from Comodo or GoDaddy won't be a problem.

My concern is whether the VPS's current private IP could cause issues, considering the public IP is on the external firewall.

When you say local domain do you mean something like .local ?

Are you using self signed certs and Manual DNS provider ?

The final approach is: add Domain to Cloudron in Domains view (note you add the top level domain like bar.com and not the app domain). then, go to LAMP app -> Location -> change the drop down to bar.com and choose some subdomain like app. That should bei t.
