Custom Domain settings

Custom domain
You can set a custom domain for your short URLs, so instead of cloudron.io/shorturl you can have example.com/shorturl.
Point your domain A record to 192.64.116.170 then add the domain via form below:

What is this IP?
It seems to randomly redirect to their hosted services.

Yeah, I think this is a feature for https://kutt.it . Given that on Cloudron app is already self-hosted with a custom domain, the custom domain feature does not make sense.

@girish That's correct; the existing box ingress limitations make this feature unusable on Cloudron installs.

@jimcavoli I haven't tried it but maybe adding the custom domain under Domains (in Cloudron) and then setting it up as a redirect to the kutts app will make the feature work.

@girish yeah, that may work; not sure what the internal usage for Kutt looks like though. If it uses the whole URL for lookup, that's probably not going to work, but I haven't tried it either

You guys are awesome, did not expect the conversation to go in this direction.

Just by thinking how it could work.

Kudos.

@girish I don't see it that way, I created mine so I could replace Rebrandly and have all of my links self-hosted. I filed a GtHub issue and someone is trying to help me out

@SamGreenwood This is quite an old topic, I am not sure what you mean. Is Kutt not working for you?
