I managed to create a WordPress website on InfinityFree with a domain as: name-surname.rf.gd but now I want to use my custom domain that I have confirmed namesurname.from.hr as a default. I cannot see the option to make it default just as an alias.
When I try to delete the free domain it warns me my data will be lost so I don’t want to do it. I was reading on the pages here that I have to create a totally new website and export the existing one and replace it there which makes no sense.
So that is why I am asking can I somehow replace the free domain with my custom as main domain and still have the hosting on InfinityFree without making a new website?
I have access to FTP and all the files are there and I made a copy version of them locally.
Having the domain as alias with a free subdomain won’t have negative impact, simply change your website home_url in your WordPress settings to your custom domain will work as expected. When visitors use the free subdomain, they’ll be automatically redirected to the custom domain.
I am not sure if we understand each other. I have now the root htdocs folder with my WP files and three domains but only one custom domain and they all are added with a custom directory that has an empty htdocs. How can I make the custom domain my main domain? I see in DNS records they all have an A record. The other two domains created by Infinity Free when adding are not letting me to park them as an alias to the custom domain which I want to be main.
