# FAQ

> Frequently asked questions about subdomains, DNS, pull requests, and usage rules.

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Which DNS record types are supported?">
    We currently support the following DNS record types:

    * `A` (IPv4)
    * `AAAA` (IPv6)
    * `CNAME` (alias)
    * `TXT` (verification, metadata)
    * `MX` (email servers)
    * `SRV` (service location)
    * `CAA` (certificate authority authorization)

    See the [Configuration](/guides/configuration) page for examples.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Why does my domain still redirect to the project homepage?">
    This usually means your DNS config hasn't been merged yet, or you're still seeing cached DNS records. Once your PR is merged, give DNS changes some time (up to a few hours) to propagate.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Can I use a CNAME record with other record types?">
    No — DNS standards require that if you use a `CNAME`, it must be the **only** record for that subdomain. If you need multiple types (e.g., `A` + `TXT`), use `A` or `AAAA` instead.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="How long will it take for my pull request to get merged?">
    Most pull requests are reviewed within **24–72 hours**. If you follow all guidelines and your config is valid, it’ll be merged as soon as possible.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Which hosting services are supported?">
    You can use any service that supports custom domains, including:

    * GitHub Pages
    * Vercel
    * Netlify
    * Cloudflare Pages
    * Custom/self-hosted servers

    Check out the [DNS & Hosting](/dns) guide for help setting these up.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Can I create nested subdomains (e.g. sub.project.owns.it.com)?">
    No — at this time we only support **one-level subdomains** like `yourname.owns.it.com`. Nested or wildcard subdomains are not supported.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="I get an SSL error on GitHub Pages. How do I fix this?">
    Make sure your GitHub repository has a `CNAME` file with your full subdomain and that GitHub Pages is configured to enforce HTTPS. Also confirm your DNS `CNAME` is correctly set.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Can I join the maintainer or moderation team?">
    We’re always open to thoughtful contributors. Open an issue or contribute consistently, and we’ll reach out if a maintainer spot opens up.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="I accidentally leaked sensitive info in my PR. Can it be deleted?">
    Yes. Immediately **close the PR** and open an issue or email us. We’ll help you remove the content from commit history as needed.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Can I use my subdomain for a Minecraft server?">
    Yes, but you’ll need to use an `A` record pointing to your server’s IP address. Just make sure it doesn’t violate any of our rules.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Who can use NS records?">
    We do **not support NS records** for custom delegation. All DNS is centrally managed by us to ensure stability and prevent abuse.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Why are you strict with NS records?">
    Allowing NS records opens up the potential for abuse, including unrestricted wildcard subdomains or spammy behavior. By managing DNS centrally, we maintain security and trust across all domains.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="How can I update or delete my subdomain?">
    To update your subdomain, simply open another pull request modifying your existing config file.

    To delete it, remove the file and open a PR with a message like `remove yourname.owns.it.com`.
