Does Discourse allow the use of alternate domain names?

The domain name I configured in

app. yml

seems to have been blocked by the ISP of some regions.
And when I attempt to directly resolve the new domain name (A record) to the website ,accessing the new domain still redirects to the old domain.
So could i use another domin to connect my website? What should i do in app.yml?

Are you totally sure about blocking? Because if this is a new setup it can take from hours to day before new DNS records are spread all over the world.

Yes, it takes me a whole day to confirm.

Red Chinese word means “timeout”
I thought it’s just the error of CDN before.
But after changing CDN to CF(CLOUDFLARE), the red warning still hasn’t disappeared. And just in JiangSu province.

另外你是不是用了cf的优选?如果方便可以在网址的帖子里详细讨论。

我是要用两个域名同时指向一个站点,因为最早的域名被当地运营商拉黑了,但discourse 似乎不支持而只能通过域名➕80/443端口的方式访问

可以实现,换域名,旧域名重定向到新域名。
如果不嫌弃可以来上面的帖子里面聊,discourse社区管理员不太支持全部用中文在帖子里交流

The transition can be achieved by changing the domain and redirecting the old domain to the new one. If you do not mind, we can discuss in the aforementioned post. The Discourse community administrators prefer not to have entirely Chinese conversations in the threads.
