Add the domain as a parked domain in the control panel, then change your site url in Wordpress settings

as a parked domain

No, that would break the entire site and result in a redirect loop.

@givikss , you’ll need to to it the old fashioned way:

How to add your own domain to your account

While a free subdomain is a great way to get started, a website looks a lot more professional with a custom domain name. Fortunately, you can register your own domain name with an external company (like NameSilo) and use it on InfinityFree. There are multiple ways you can add the domain name as an account. You can create it as a new account or add it to an existing account. Adding your domain name to your hosting account Option 1: Create a new hosting account To add your domain name to a new h…

How to move a website to a different directory

Every website is linked to a certain htdocs directory on your account. But sometimes you need to move a website from one htdocs directory to another.

That shouldn’t be the case. If you point two domains to the same WordPress installation, then normally WordPress will only show the website on the configured website URL, and redirect all other domains to that website URL.

Only if you start setting incorrect website URLs, or add additional code to “fix” the URL do you run the risk of causing a redirect loop.

That’s what I initially thought and having been giving out similar solutions like this.

Until sometimes ago someone asked how he could move a WordPress installation onto a new address. I told him to park domain and update site url. Everything seems to be fine, but boom, ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS.

Maybe something is misconfigured in the process, maybe how the actuall server handle such requests break something (especially when considering there’s nginx before Apache). Still, this makes me believe that using parked domains to move WordPress is not a good idea. And did you just mention that things do can break under some circumstances?
