It includes sales, inventory, accounting, and more. If you are using an online Odoo store, the domain configuration ensures that Odoo websites and applications are seamlessly accessible to your customers. In this guide, we\u2019ll walk you through the process of updating your DNS settings, connecting your domain to Odoo, and verifying that everything works smoothly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 1- Create a Domain Redirect<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Before redirecting the domain name, choose the web hosting plan from MilesWeb.&nbsp; Create an empty website first with the AI website builder or on WordPress. Then, add a domain to your hosting plan. Then, create an .htaccess file in the public_html folder of the domain and add the following code:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>RewriteEngine On\n\nRewriteCond %{HTTPS} off &#91;OR]\n\nRewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www. &#91;NC]\n\nRewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?:www.)?(.+)$ &#91;NC]<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Save changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 2 \u2013 Configure Your CNAME Record<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Log in to MilesWeb\u2019s mPanel and navigate to DNS zone settings. But before that, remove any existing A records linked with the root domain or subdomain.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, create a CNAME record with the following details:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Host: www<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Points to: your-database-name.odoo.com<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>TTL: Default value (e.g., 15890)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Ensure you replace the database name with the original Odoo database name. For Odoo Online: You need to find it in the Odoo account under My Databases. For Odoo.sh: Navigate to Settings \u2192 Project Name to locate the main address of your deployment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After adding the new DNS record in the database, wait for 24 hours of propagation. Then, your domain will start pointing to Odoo.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 3 \u2013 Link Your Domain to Your Odoo Database<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Linking your domain depends on your hosting type.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For Odoo Online:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Sign in to your Odoo account and open the Database Manager.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Navigate to Settings \u2192 Domain Names.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click on Use my own domain.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enter your custom domain name.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Click Verify, and then select I confirm, it\u2019s done to complete the setup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For Odoo.sh:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Go to the Branches section and choose your desired branch.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click on Settings \u2192 Custom Domains.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Enter your domain name and hit Add Domain to link it with your project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 4 \u2013 Update the Root URL of Your Odoo Database<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Finalize the domain setup by updating the root URL used in the Odoo database.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Activate Developer Mode in your Odoo instance.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Navigate to Settings \u2192 Technical \u2192 System Parameters.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Look for a parameter with the Key: web.base.url.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Click Create to add a parameter, if it not exists.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the Value field, enter your custom domain in the format: https:\/\/www.yourdomain.com (Make sure to use HTTPS and avoid a trailing slash at the end.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 5 \u2013 Map your Domain With your Website<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In your Odoo account, navigate to Website \u2192 Configuration \u2192 Settings \u2192 Website Info and select the desired website.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Enter the domain name in the following format in the given domain field.\u00a0(www.domain.tld)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, update changes by clicking Save.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"vlt-box \">\n<div class=\"box-title\" style=\"background:#D5EAFF; color:#000\">Wrap Up<\/div>\n<div class=\"box-content\" >\n<p>Pointing your domain to Odoo database enhances your brand\u2019s credibility. Also, it enhances the user experience with a memorable and secure web address. By following the given steps, you can confidently manage domain configurations and ensure a flawless connection to your Oddo platform.
