You would think it would be easy to find this information, but none of the Github or Gandi documentation is clear so I have recorded the required steps here.
Create the following A records:
@ 1800 IN A 185.199.108.153
@ 1800 IN A 185.199.109.153
@ 1800 IN A 185.199.110.153
@ 1800 IN A 185.199.111.153
Remove the Gandi parking page A record:
@ 10800 IN A 217.70.184.38
Create the following CNAME record:
www 10800 IN CNAME [github-username].github.io.
Remove the Gandi parking page CNAME record:
www 1800 IN CNAME webredir.vip.gandi.net.
Finally, in your Github repo create a file called CNAME
which contains your Gandi domain name, e.g. [my-domain].io
.
Is it normal that the connection is not https? I think I have a ssl certificate with my gandi custom domain. Would it be possible to have https when connecting to my custom domain to the github page? What would be the steps in case?
