Bio pages · Updated 25 aug. 2026

Custom domains (bio and Sites)

Serve your Styrar bio page or Site on a hostname you own, such as bio.example.com or your root domain example.com.

Custom domains are available for company workspaces up to your plan's custom domain limit. Personal workspaces use the default Styrar hostnames, such as your-slug.styrar.page for bio pages or your-slug.styrar.site for Sites. A custom URL slug is managed separately from a custom domain.

What to connect

Use the hostname visitors will open.

  • A subdomain such as bio.example.com or www.example.com is the simplest.
  • Your root domain (example.com) also works. We show the right DNS records after you add it.

Styrar uses one custom hostname per service. When adding a domain, you choose whether it serves a Bio page, a Site, or short links. If you need both example.com and www.example.com, connect the hostname visitors should open and redirect the other at your DNS provider.

When entering the hostname, enter the domain only. Do not include https:// or a trailing slash.

Add the domain

The main place to manage all workspace domains is Settings → Domains.

  1. Go to Settings → Domains.
  2. Choose + Add domain.
  3. Select the service you want to use this domain for (Bio page or Site).
  4. Pick the specific bio page or site target.
  5. Enter the hostname (for example bio.example.com or www.example.com) and choose Add domain.
  6. Copy the records in the table into your DNS provider.
  7. Choose Check status until the badge is Active.

You can also attach domains directly from the editor:

  • Sites → Domain: Choose Attach domain, enter the hostname, then Verify DNS.
  • Bio → Domain: Assign a verified bio domain from your workspace pool. You must add and verify the domain in Settings → Domains first.

DNS records

Add the DNS records shown in your dashboard at your DNS provider. The table columns are Purpose, Type, Name, and Value.

PurposeWhat it does
Domain routingSends visitors to Styrar
Ownership validationProves you control the hostname
SSL validationIssues the certificate (when required)

Subdomain (bio.example.com)

Domain routing is a CNAME. Add a CNAME from bio.example.com to the target shown in your dashboard (typically styrar.page or styrar.site, or whatever the table shows), plus any TXT records shown.

Root domain (example.com)

This is your root domain. Most DNS providers cannot use a CNAME at the root. Add an ALIAS or ANAME record pointing at the target shown in your dashboard. If your DNS is on Cloudflare, a CNAME at the root is fine (Cloudflare flattens it), or you can use the Cloudflare shortcut.

Cloudflare shortcut

If this domain's DNS is already on Cloudflare, you can use the Connect with Cloudflare button. This optional shortcut authorizes Styrar to add the required TXT and CNAME records for you, then discards the token. Root domains are applied as a CNAME (Cloudflare flattens it).

You can always copy and paste the records manually into any other DNS provider. Styrar custom domains are powered by Cloudflare, so SSL provisions automatically once DNS is verified.

Status badges

BadgeMeaning
ActiveHostname and SSL are ready
Pending DNSDNS is still propagating or a TXT record is missing
InactiveThe domain is no longer routing correctly

DNS changes can take up to 24 hours to propagate globally, though they are usually live within minutes. Keep the TXT records in place until the badge is Active. Use the Check status or Refresh button to update the status.

Remove or unassign

Remove domain in Settings disconnects the hostname from Styrar. DNS records at your provider are not deleted automatically unless you used the Cloudflare shortcut and edit them there yourself.

For bio pages, choosing Unassign in the bio editor removes the domain from that specific page but keeps it verified in your workspace pool for later use.

Troubleshooting

  • The registrar rejected a CNAME at example.com: use ALIAS or ANAME, or move DNS to Cloudflare and apply a CNAME (flattening).
  • www still shows the old site: Styrar only serves the one hostname you connected. Add a redirect from the other name at your DNS provider.
  • Status stays pending: confirm every Name and Value matches the table, including Ownership and SSL TXT rows.
  • You pasted a full URL: Styrar expects the hostname only. If you entered https://example.com/page, remove the domain and add it again as example.com.
