### Overview

If you have a domain name hosted outside of Pitchero, no problem, you're able to map your existing domain to point to your Pitchero Club website.

To do this:

- You need access to the registrar control panel for your domain name
- The club needs to be on the Standard or Pro package
- The club cannot have a different domain name attached to the website

---

### Configure the domain name with the current registrar

Step-by-step guide:

- Access the Advanced DNS settings within your domain registrar's control panel. (A domain name registrar is a company that manages the purchase of domain names)
- Add the following DNS record listed in the Settings area of your club admin dashboard (the record value is unique to the club). 
    - Record Name - \_pitchero-challenge
    - Record type - TXT
    - Record value - see the value in the club admin dashboard
- The newly added DNS record will need to propagate before the domain is ready to be connected to Pitchero. This can take up to 24 hours but is usually quicker.

---

### Connect the domain name to the website

In order to connect your domain name to your Pitchero Club website, you need to have first completed the steps outlined in [Configure the domain name with the current registrar](https://help.pitchero.com/knowledge/connect-domain#P2).

Step-by-step guide:

- Go to your club admin dashboard
- Click '**Settings**' from the left-hand menu
- Click '**Domain** **name**'' from the sub-menu
- Click '**Connect** **my** **existing** **domain**'
- Enter your '**Domain** **Name**'
- Click '**Save**'

**Please** **note**:

Domain configurations can take **up to 24 hours** to complete and you may experience downtime on your website while this is processing.

---

### Remove an existing domain

If you have a new domain or wish to remove your domain from Pitchero you can do this via your control panel. 

Step-by-step guide:

- Go to your club admin dashboard
- Click '**Settings**' from the left-hand menu
- Click '**Domain** **name**'' from the sub-menu
- Click '**Remove** **domain**'

**Please note**:

Removal of a domain may lead to accessibility issues with your domain, please only remove your domain if you intend to.

---

### Domain renewal

There is an option to transfer the domain name to Pitchero. In doing so, Pitchero will take care of the registration and upkeep of the domain name. For more information, please see [Transfer the club's domain name to Pitchero](https://help.pitchero.com/knowledge/transfer-domain).

If your club has chosen to register the domain name outside of Pitchero, it's the club's responsibility to ensure the domain name is renewed and continued to be mapped to the Pitchero Club website.

**Please note**:

If the domain configuration settings are changed or domain name not renewed, you may not be able to access the website using the domain name.
