How to Set Up a Custom Domain on District Pro

PreviousDistrict Pro FeaturesNextStarting my own District

Last updated 28 days ago

If you’re on District Pro, you can host your site on your own domain (like www.yourstore.com) instead of your default District URL. Here’s how to set it up:


What You'll Need:

  • A District Pro subscription

  • A domain you’ve purchased (like from Namecheap, GoDaddy, or Name.com)

  • Access to your domain provider’s DNS settings


Step 1: Add Your Domain in District

  1. Log in to your District

  2. Go to Settings in bottom left

  3. Tap Custom Domain > enter your full domain (e.g. www.yourstore.com)

  4. Click 'Add Domain'

You’ll now see the DNS information you’ll need to add in your domain provider’s dashboard (details in Step 2). Before hitting "Refresh Status," continue with the next step.

Step 2: Add Your DNS Records (using your domain provider’s instructions)

In your domain provider’s dashboard, you’ll need to add the following DNS records to point your domain to District. Use the Type column to determine whether to add an A Record or a CNAME.

If you're not sure how to find or update your DNS settings, follow your provider’s help guide:

If you use a different provider, search their help center for "Add an A record," "Add a CNAME record," or "Edit DNS settings"—the process is generally similar.

Step 3: Refresh Status in District

  • Go to Settings > Custom Domain

  • Tap Refresh Status to check your connection

    • Note: DNS changes can take up to 24 hours to fully update, though it often happens sooner.

  • Once connected, you’ll see a green message that says “Connected.”

Step 4: Go live with your custom domain

After the connection is confirmed, your District will be live at your custom domain — like www.yourstore.com.

You’ll still be able to access your site at district.net/yourstore, but we recommend using and sharing your custom domain for a more branded experience.
