Do all subdomains (resume, products, etc.) need to be added to the JSON file?

[alvin-dennis]

Hi maintainers 👋

I currently host my portfolio and other sites on Vercel, but I plan to migrate everything to GitHub Pages. My setup will look like this:

• alvindennis.is-a.dev → portfolio

• resume.alvindennis.is-a.dev → resume (separate repo, static site)

• Other dev products that i made (each with its own repo) → product1.alvindennis.is-a.dev, product2.alvindennis.is-a.dev, etc.

My question is:

Do I need to explicitly add every subdomain (resume, products, etc.) to the JSON file in the register repo?

Or is adding just the root after converting from vercel to github pages (alvindennis.is-a.dev) and using CNAME files ( produc1.alvindennis.is-a.dev,) in each repo enough?

I want to confirm the correct process for managing multiple subdomains under my root domain. Thanks 🙏

Yes You need to create another json file for your subdomain and nested subdomain. we dont support wildcards (e.g. *.sticknologic.is-a.dev)

So I delete the vercel subdomain and create a GitHub subdomain.json and the verification one json also?

[STICKnoLOGIC]

yup, you need to delete the vercel json file:
_vercel.subdomain.json

and edit all the remaining nested/subdomain records (most likely you need to replace the CNAME, if you are using A records (IP Address) you need to replace it with your CNAME e.g sticknologic.github.io)

and for the github verification, you only need to verify your root subdomain, read the docs to know more -> https://docs.is-a.dev/guides/github-pages/

So i just need to do "Verifying your is-a.dev Subdomain with GitHub Pages" section rgt?
where i will have to submit this:

{
    "owner": {
        "username": "github-username",
        "email": "[email protected]"
    },
    "records": {
        "TXT": "github-verification-string"
    }
}

Nothing else rgt? @STICKnoLOGIC

yup, as long as your site doesnt violate the TOS, all is good!
