Setting up a blog app but Domain name issues

I enjoy using netlify because its not over complaticing my deploy and it works however I would like to my domain name show instead the subdomain. The UI is not providing enough feedback/details with what’s wrong and neither is the docs.

the site name is https://lesliemwubbel.netlify.app/

I have a domain name www.lesliemwubbel.com from name.com that I delete DNS zone with and replace with the recommend Netlify way but it hasn’t change. is this due to lack of TLS or HTTPS certification.
How do I generate one for my domain name? I look at docs HTTPS (SSL) | Netlify Docs

I figure out that the automatically generated HTTPS cert failed to generate. I did not get much user feedback when I clicked “Verify DNS configuration” just error on DNS verification failed www.lesliemwubbel.com doesn’t appear to be served by Netlify.

  • DNS issues? Tell us the custom domain, tell us the error message! We can’t help if we don’t know your domain.

I visit the site https://lesliemwubbel.com/ I get ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED

The better the post - the faster the answer.

Hey @Gresliebear,

I believe you might have to contact name.com for that. The domain is not showing any DNS records when checked with: dig NS +trace lesliemwubbel.com.

@hrishikesh

I deleted DNS zone per these instructions on Netlify and I told Netlify picks up the domain automatically?

Do you think I have to configure DNS zone configuration with? on name.com

Hey @Gresliebear,

If you’re willing to use name.com, you will simply have to add the domain to Netlify and add the nameservers that Netlify shows in your name.com DNS panel.
