Before you start

Prepare the right information

  • The school must control the domain registrar account and be able to change the DNS values shown in the dashboard.

Workflow

Complete the task step by step

  1. 1

    Open Custom domain and review the current primary public URL.

  2. 2

    Add only the root domain, without https, www, a page path, or spaces.

  3. 3

    At the registrar, apply the exact nameserver or DNS instructions shown for Software for Driving School; do not reuse instructions from another product.

  4. 4

    Wait for DNS propagation, then return to the domain record and run the verification check.

  5. 5

    Make the verified and secured domain primary only after the status panel says it is ready.

  6. 6

    Open the homepage, enrollment, booking, contact, legal, sitemap, and a published article on the custom domain before announcing it.

Expected result

What success looks like

The connecting a custom school domain workflow is configured or understood, and the user knows the next dashboard step.

Public website impact

Nothing changes on the public website until an authorized user saves or publishes a setting that is designed to be public.

Troubleshooting

Common problems to check

  • The included Software for Driving School subdomain remains the fallback until a verified domain is primary.
  • Dashboard, login, subscription billing, and platform administration stay on softwarefordrivingschool.com.
