Hi guys

The DNS settings proposed by Railway for the root domain are rejected by 123-reg (now GoDaddy). So CNAME with @ is rejected? For CNAME records i get enter a valid name like www or mail. A wildcard like * is accepted but its not propogating. Can you help please?

Regards

Matt

GoDaddy does not support CNAME flattening at the root domain, which is why 123-reg/GoDaddy rejects a CNAME record with @. The recommended workaround is to change your domain's nameservers to Cloudflare, which supports CNAME flattening and will allow you to set a CNAME for printface.com pointing to the Railway target. You will also need to add the TXT verification record at _railway-verify.printface.com shown in your service's domain settings for the certificate to issue. Our docs on adding a root domain cover this in detail.

Try rooting your domain to Cloudflare and doing it that way.
