Request for rbind.io subdomain #950

Closed vjjan91 closed 7 months ago

vjjan91 commented 7 months ago

Thank you for processing this request for a subdomain in rbind.io I am a postdoctoral research fellow at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology & my primary research is in using quantitative analyses tools to monitor biodiversity responses to climate change. I am hoping to use this website to showcase current work & a blog featuring the usage of sf and spatial analyses tools in R.

Please note that I had an rbind.io domain before but I deleted it because I am redoing the website creation using the distill package in R.

Preferred rbind.io subdomain

vijayramesh.rbind.io

I would like to directly connect my github pages deployment to this subdomain requested. Would that be possible? I am not planning to use netlify.

Agreement

vjjan91 commented 7 months ago

The associated git repo for the website is here: https://github.com/vjjan91/vijayramesh & I am hoping to transfer domain by going to settings > pages > custom domain

@vjjan91 Sure thing, what's you new Netlify site address?

vjjan91 commented 7 months ago

@nanxstats Do you need a netlify address? I am not hoping to deploy my website via netlify & rather git pages. Please let me know!

nanxstats commented 7 months ago

@vjjan91 Not really - if you want to deploy via GitHub Pages, please let us know the github.io address instead.

vjjan91 commented 7 months ago

Here's my github.io address where the website is currently being deployed:

https://vjjan91.github.io/vijayramesh/

Great - one more thing: Is it possible to host your website at vjjan91.github.io? I'm asking because we can only point the subdomain to another domain but not an address with a path component. With GitHub Pages, this can be done by using a repo with a special name.

vjjan91 commented 7 months ago

I decided to go ahead and use netlify (since it was easier). My netlify address is:

vijayramesh.netlify.app

My subdomain requested is:

vijayramesh.rbind.io

nanxstats commented 7 months ago

@vjjan91 Cool. The record shows vijayramesh.rbind.io already points to vijayramesh.netlify.app.

It's currently showing a soft 404 though. It's unclear to me why, but you probably want to double check if the rbind subdomain is correctly set in your Netlify site configuration:

You can add the rbind subdomain in your Netlify account as the custom domain to your site, as is shown below. Simply use your subdomain.rbind.io as the record, no www needed.

Thanks! That works - is there a reason why it says this website is not secure? "Your connection is not secure:" message shows up in the top left corner next to the address

It works on my side on computer and phone networks - could be cache. Try connect from another computer.

Thanks again Nan for your quick response! I am going to close this as resolved. Appreciate the help!
