Custom domains/zh-cn

Miraheze can make wikis available on custom domains (like wiki.yourdomain.org) on request. The only things we need is you to follow the below steps, and an SSL certificate for your wiki (no SSL certificate, no custom domain - We do not accept StartSSL or WoSign certificates. If you wish to use LetsEncrypt, please state it in the email as LetsEncrypt is a process we handle entirely without intervention/additional work from you other than pointing the domain to our server):


 * 如果您可以更改DNS服务器：
 * Note: if you already host a website on this domain, it will become unreachable.


 * 1) 将域名服务器更改为 "ns1.miraheze.org" 和 "ns2.miraheze.org" （如果您不知道如何操作，请联系您的域名注册商）；
 * 2) (If you haven't already) When requesting a wiki put your custom domain (e.g. wiki.yourdomain.org) in the "custom domain" field and make the "subdomain" field empty;
 * 3) 发送邮件到 csr@undefinedmiraheze.org，为您的SSL证书申请CSR（记得说明您的域名）；


 * 如果您无法更改DNS服务器：
 * 1) 将您的子域名添加为CNAME，指向 "mw-lb.miraheze.org";
 * 2) 申请维基时，将自定义域名填入 "custom domain" （自定义域名）中，并将 "subdomain" （子域名）保留空白；
 * 3) 发送邮件到 csr@undefinedmiraheze.org，为您的SSL证书申请CSR（记得说明您的域名）；

In the meantime a wiki creator will create the wiki, and associate a .miraheze.org domain with it.

If it is not LetsEncrypt: A system administrator who handles your CSR request will shortly after generate a CSR & private key (for use at our own servers), and the requested CSR will be emailed to you. You use this CSR to request your SSL certificate vendor to generate an SSL certificate with the CSR we gave you. You will need to email us the generated SSL certificate when this is done. If all of these steps are done, we will add the custom domain to your wiki, and we will notify you when this all is done.

If it is LetsEncrypt: There is nothing left for you to do, a system administrator will take care of all the remaining steps.

Free domains
You can register a free subdomain with any domain that you want (as long as they have it on the site) instead of the Miraheze domain. Some domains are very short so you can have most of the full domain name be for your wiki.

SSL Providers
Miraheze accepts most SSL certificate providers that are accepted by browsers such as Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome. As mentioned above, we do not accept WoSign certs anymore.
