Capital letters in Sub domain redirect

[brendanb8548]

I want to create a Subdomain for my discord join link and I want to have Discord.Mydomain.us go to my discord join link but I need a capital “W” and it does not let me use one.

CNAME: discord
discord.gg.opts-slash.utwwr5h.redirect.center

CNAMEs are case-insensitive.

DNS is case insensitive by default.
You can try to encode your cname:

opts.slash doesnt keep correct case

You could also point the cname to a new vHost your webserver and redirect it permanently (301) to your Discord. There are different ways to work around it.

As others have mentioned DNS names are case insensitive, so we (toLower) everything. That being said I think you can do this with page rules instead.

Create an A record for discord and point it to 8.8.8.8. Then create a page rule for discord.yourdomain.com* and do a 301 redirect to discord.gg/wHatEvEr

When I try to encode it says: Invalid hostname: use '@' to represent the root domain

`discord.gg.opts-slash.utw%57r5h.redirect.center`

You didn’t enter a name. I should look like

Or do it like @cs-cf mentioned.

Point an A record for “discord” to 8.8.8.8 (i guess your own server ip will work as well) and create a page rule:

Or whatever the discord domain is…
