How can I tell if my Discourse instance is hosted by you or deployed on my own server?

I forgot whether my instance is deployed on my own server or not.

It would depend what site it is. :slight_smile: Some people have both.

If you don’t want to share the site publicly you can send a PM to @team and we can check there. :+1:

Though your dashboard would have some account information on if it was hosted by us.

You can do a lookup of your site name or look at your DNS records whatever way youy know how. If it’s a CNAME that points to something like hosted-by-discourse it is. If it’s an IP address, it probably isn’t.

Right! The dashboard will clearly have CDCK billing information on it.

Check your credit card bill for e.g. Digital Ocean and Namecheap!

A quick way is to check the DNS record for the site hostname.

If it’s a CNAME to something.hosted-by-discourse.com, it’s hosted by us.

If not, it’s probably not.
